Peter and Sarah grow up living next door to one another in a small town in the east of Scotland.  They also share the same birthday.  He’s not so bright, but she’s formidably intelligent. She’s also autistic, and can’t understand why nobody except Peter likes her.

The days of our birth follows Peter and Sarah over twenty years.  His journey into adulthood is fairly effortless; hers, more complex. It explores how two very different people can grow up as best friends, but never quite understand why they’re best friends and what they really feel about one another.

The book, filled with humour and poignancy, is an exploration of how people change, the things we could have said and done and, sometimes, how we can make things right again.

Peter and Sarah are finally forced to confront what they really feel, about themselves and about each other.  For them, it is also about realising that love and friendship mean more than the sum of their differences.

The word love has been defined and confined by society to a certain spectrum, basically involving man and woman. This book dares society to look outside the spectrum at love just as it is - unconditional. No caste, creed, gender, religion or beliefs determining the same. As one would love a pet regardless of the gender, as one would love a newborn regardless, so does this book take the reader on a relationship considered taboo especially in Asian countries. Post reading this book, readers are expected to have an open mind to relationships and not succumb to society's bottle necked version of who should love whom or what sanctions a relationship. This book opens the dimension to another world where matter of the heart is concerned, taking the most commonly used word 'love' to the next level - a level where beliefs will crumble and minds will explode. This book will challenge you to step out of your cocoon, your garment and labels slapped on you by society from the time you were born and for many, even after they have gone to their graves. Prepare to be authentic to yourself. Not for the society or community but for yourself.
