As the mother of an international adoptee, I recommend Voices
from Another Place to all parents like me, who want to understand
what our children can't always express - their deepest thoughts and
feelings about being from "another place."

Fiction, memoir, poetry and art from
the first generation of Korean adoptees who are now grown to
adulthood, but never completely removed from their roots in
Korea. The writings and artwork contained in Voices from
Another Place reflect the experiences and emotions of those
who began life in Korea, but were raised by adoptive families in
America, Europe and Australia. From childhood they grew into
their adopted cultures, but the reflection in the mirror, the
whispers of strangers, and the quiet beating of their hearts
perhaps told them of another land, the land of their birth.
