Recensori in anteprima

Reginald Jarrell was adopted by relatives who loved him and raised him well. Yet he yearned to know about his biological father, who remained for unexplained reasons a family secret.

In this memoir he retraces his decades of searching and probes his own feelings with candor and insight. He looks for Myron with ambivalence and determination. A highly educated Black man with multiple degrees and experience as a lawyer, professor, Christian clergy person, and journalist, his story provides an up close and personal look at the feelings of many adoptees and is a valuable read for anyone who has experienced adoption as an adoptive parent, child, or biological parent.

Indeed, it is a fascinating read for anyone interested in how we humans face our losses and find resolution to our internal questions.
