The Mistress's Daughter by A. M Homes A Memoir

On the day that A. M. Homes was born in 1961, she was given up for adoption. Her birth parents were a twenty-two year old woman and an older, married man. Thirty years later, out of the blue, they tracked her down. The Mistress's Daughter is a riveting account of what happened next.

The effect on the adult Homes of meeting her biological mother and father was strange and unexpected, and the story spirals into something utterly raw and hilarious, heartbreaking and absurd.

The Mistress's Daughter is memoir writing at its best.

A softcover book of 239 pages in very good condition.
