ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER.

BOOK OF THE YEAR BY VULTURE, LITHUB, THE GUARDIAN, AND COSMOPOLITAN.

For decades, we've tried to understand sociopaths and their psyche. For the first time, one of them confesses.

From a very young age, Patric realized that her presence made people uncomfortable. She suspected the reason was her inability to feel such basic emotions as fear or guilt, and empathy was a concept completely foreign to her. So, she began pretending to be like everyone else. But the misunderstanding and rejection she faced became unbearable. In an attempt to experience the same emotions as those around her, she turned to stealing, lying, and even stabbing a classmate with a pencil.
