The Lost Child of Philomena Lee by Martin Sixsmith

4.0

I liked this - it was really interesting to learn about the gay community at the onset of the AIDS crisis and also the political redistricting, etc. The most interesting part to me was the impact of not knowing one's family or roots on children and how it follows them into adulthood. There is so much to be said about the disconnection that comes with adoption and fostering even in the best cases; although this made for a pretty cruel experiment it was neat to be able to see the results, in one case, anyway.
