Homes tells of being relentlessly tracked down by her birth mother, and Bernard Cornwall about being adopted by members of a repressive religious sect; Tama Janowitz comically describes meeting her Chinese daughter for the first time, and Martin Rowson reflects on encountering his surprisingly numerous long-lost siblings; Matthew Engel wrestles with international red tape and social workers in his bid to adopt a child, and Emily Prager writes movingly about how her young daughter came to terms with being adopted; Jonathan Rendall falls for his birth mother, and Paula Fox writes about the joy of being reunited with the daughter she gave up for adoption decades before."--Jacket.
