Deborah W. Davis

Opis

When Deborah Davis was just seven years old, her mother read her a book about adoption, gently explaining to the mystified child that her origins made her special. For Davis, the revelation of this truth set in motion a consuming curiosity about her birth parents. Ultimately, it led to the author's exhaustive search to identify and meet the two individuals who were biologically closest to her, yet had made the decision to give her away.

"The Delta Poinsettia" is Davis's candid, tender tale of tracking down the biological parents who went to great lengths to remain beyond her grasp. Her journey not only led her to encounters with both her birth mother and father, but it also offered a new and meaningful perspective on what it means to be family, as a daughter, a mother, and a wife.

With heartbreaking honesty and arresting clarity, "The Delta Poinsettia" illustrates how intricately woven the fabric of family can be. It's a stirring memoir that is certain to captivate readers intrigued by real-life accounts of complex circumstances, and those who are moved by those rare individuals who muster the strength, courage, and perseverance to get to the heart of the matter.
