Recenzje

The First Amerasians offers a bold counternarrative to existing discourses about the origins and impact of Korean transnational adoption. Yuri Doolan not only provides an eye-opening account of how mixed-race Korean children were separated from their first mothers, but also how their adoptions by foreign families left a fraught legacy that adopted individuals continue to grapple with today.
