Publisher's Synopsis
"From Mary Cardaras comes the captivating story of a true adoption survivor: Dena was taken from her Greek biological parents in 1958, but she found her way back to the village after many years. Her transatlantic adoption strikes home how intercountry adoption has affected all parties involved: the first family, the extended new family, the struggling young couple, their children, the village community back in Greece. Told with deep empathy and real couleur locale, Mary Cardaras, a searching Greek adoptee herself, tells an intimate personal story with a recognizable global dimension. The result has us confirm that truth is, after all, more gripping than fiction"--.
