    Chosen brings together writing and poetry by over 50 adopted adults born between 1934 and 1984.

They capture a broad range of perspectives: adoption within the extended family; late-discovery adopted adults; transracial and transnational adoption; those who have searched for birth family, and those who did not search but were found by a relative.
