David: Giftedness, an undervalued problem

15,99 27,00
From the very first page, DAVID grabs the reader by the throat. Alex Van Haecke tells the true story of a boy who goes through life as a highly gifted person. DAVID caused unrest almost from his birth. His immediate environment, family and school sometimes had absolutely no idea what to do with him. After a while, there was talk of a high IQ, but never of high intelligence. And it is precisely the basic characteristics of that handicap and the associated side effects that make high intelligence an undervalued problem. After all, people still assume that this special characteristic is more of a luxury problem and by definition does not require special guidance. Nothing could be further from the truth! Reading this beautiful novel by Alex Van Haecke, the book with which the author/actor 'comes home', will make a lot clear to you in that regard. Van Haecke, himself burdened with the heavy burden of giftedness, devoted two years of his life to this book, transformed hesitant testimonies into gripping literature, added autobiographical elements and, with his masterful pen, signed for a sensitive appreciation of the undervalued problem that is giftedness. DAVID is a deeply human book that will leave you speechless.
