wow, what a stunning graphic novel, muted, meaningful, it tore my heart out and fed it to me. i am adopted and have so much respect for transracial adoptees, who look for answers where there are none, or almost insurmountable barriers.
"Korea never thought we would return. The country abandoned ourselves before we could speak up for ourselves. No one knew that we would thirst for our families and for our roots, that against all odds, we would come back to live here again. No one was prepared for adult adoptees to come and reclaim their rights."
