The Imprint of Another Life

- Adoption Narratives and Human Possibility

About The Imprint of Another Life

Adoption has a special relationship to fiction-making, and tends to generate stories rather than uncover bedrock truths. Adoptive families are made, not born. The Imprint of Another Life shows some of the ways in which literary creation and a concept of adoption as a form of creativity make available new ways of thinking about adoption and what it means to be human.
