När Anitha Clemence som vuxen förlorar sina adoptivföräldrar uppstår ett vakuum. Ingen kan längre berätta hennes historia och nu måste hon göra det hon dragit sig för hela livet: Hon börjar nysta i de mysterier som omgärdar hennes adoption. Som 2-åring rycktes hon från ett kloster i Indien och flögs nedsövd till Sverige – men vad låg egentligen bakom? Spåren leder tillbaka till Kerala, där hon av en nunna får höra avslöjanden om skam, skandaler och undangömda familjehemligheter. Med hjälp av privatdetektiver och DNA-databaser tar hon sig närmare sanningen, men en fråga kvarstår: Vill hennes biologiska mamma ens bli hittad? ”Familjehemligheter” är en sann och hudlös berättelse om arv, miljö och kampen för att förstå sin egen identitet.

The extraordinary and riveting story of separated Chinese twins, with one twin seized by the authorities and adopted into America, by the Samuel Johnson-winning author of Nothing to Envy.In 2000, a Chinese woman gave birth to twins in a bamboo grove, trying to avoid detection by the government because she already had two daughters. Two years later, an American couple travelled to Shaoyang to adopt a Chinese toddler they thought had been abandoned.Their understanding had been that China's brutal one-child policy was leading to hundreds of abandoned girls, desperate for the care of adopted parents. What they didn't know - and what award-winning journalist Barbara Demick uncovered in 2007, while working as a correspondent in Beijing - was that their daughter had been snatched from her beloved family and her identical twin. Under China's one-child policy hundreds of poor Chinese were giving up their children due to soaring fines and threats of violence. More sinister still, international demand for adoptees was sky-rocketing, and local officials were forcibly seizing children and trafficking them to orphanages, who were selling them abroad.Daughters of the Bamboo Grove tells the gripping story of separated twins, their respective fates in China and the USA, and Barbara Demick's role in reuniting them against huge odds. Painting a rich portrait of China's history and culture, it asks questions about the roots, impact and consequences of China's one-child policy, the ethics of international adoption, and, ultimately, the assumptions and narratives we hold about the quality of lives lived in the East and the West.

Boken tar dig med i 52 kärnfulla kapitel som spänner över varje vecka under ett helt år i en jourhemspappas liv. Här möter du bland annat beskrivningar av vardag, storhelger, skolavslutningar, sammanbrott, glädje, kaos, sorg, skratt och tårar.
Sannolikt har alla som bor i Sverige hört begreppet fosterhem , men det är försvinnande få som vet vad uppdraget innebär i praktiken. Denna bok ger dig en unik inblick i vardagen för ett jour- och familjehem. Boken vänder sig till dig som vill förstå hur ett samhälle tar hand om de mest utsatta, våra barn. Den är till särskild nytta för dig som direkt eller indirekt möter barn och ungdomar i din vardag, men inte minst till dig som vill veta mer om vad det innebär att vara jour- och familjehem.

En äldre dam hittar Elin ensam i en barnvagn, skrikande och med en blöja som behöver bytas. Det är början på Elins ständiga flyttar mellan hemmet med mamman som dricker och olika barnhem och fosterhem. Hon blir snabbt en mästare på att känna in vad vuxna förväntar sig och på att anpassa sig för att inte vara till besvär. Om hon bara kunde låta bli att provocera de vuxna genom att skratta när de blir arga.
Wicky Belle berättar om hur det är att söka trygghet och tillhörighet där den finns, men också upptäcka att tryggheten är skenbar och döljer än mer destruktivitet. Hur vet man vad man förtjänar och vad man har rätt till? Hur förstår man vad som är normalt, och hur hittar man en väg ur sitt kaos? Vad händer när man själv får ansvar för ett litet barn?
Insiktsfullt och gripande berättar Wicky om hur det är att växa upp när det inte riktigt finns vuxna som ser och visar den omsorg som ett barn borde kunna förvänta sig. Det är tankeväckande för alla som har barn omkring sig, oavsett om det är i yrkeslivet eller i privatlivet.

“Impossible to put down, makes you laugh and cry, Sophie’s story is inspirational. It gives us so much hope and encouragement. I don’t think we would be where we are on our own journey without her advice.” OLLIE LOCKE “A read so twisty your heart pounds as you turn the pages.” THE SUNDAY TIMES Brave, funny and honest, columnist Sophie Beresiner takes us on her complex journey to parenthood and shows us that there’s more than one way to become a mother.Sophie’s journey to motherhood began aged 30 with a cancer diagnosis that stole her fertility. Today, Sophie is older, wiser (and agonisingly excellent at hindsight), and somewhat battered. Through interminable cycles of hope and failure, her infertility story spanned three countries, five surrogates and a debt she’d rather not dwell on.Part memoir, part manifesto, The Mother Project is the epic story of Sophie’s quest for happiness. Exploring the complexities, expectations and injustices faced by millions of women across the world, it is a book that is both personal and universal.
