Guardian Bookshop Notes:

A moving, revelatory and redemptive autobiographical journey, in which the acclaimed poet, playwright, novelist and short story writer traces her own story: that of her own adoption. Told with generosity and humour, it takes the reader from Glasgow to Lagos, and is a book about belonging and beliefs, strangers and family; and what makes us who we are.

Publisher's description:

From the moment when, as a little girl, she realizes that her skin is a different colour from that of her beloved mum and dad, to the tracing and finding of her birth parents, her Highland mother and Nigerian father, the journey that Jackie Kay undertakes is full of unexpected twists, turns and deep emotions. This book tells her story.
