This review is from: In the Year of the Ox (Paperback)
"The road to adoption in China begins with abandonment," Hannah Amgott writes. "Those Chinese infants who survive and are adopted internationally have an abiding need for a sense of history, belonging, and grounding. Throughout the writing of my book, I had one aim in mind: to craft something lasting and meaningful as a legacy for my daughter." She describes IN THE YEAR OF THE OX as a tale of "love, hope, survival, and the evolution of an adoptive mother."Through this insightful collection of journal entries, letters, and poetry, Hannah Amgott conveys the scope and impact of milestones and emotions experienced over a twelve-year Chinese zodiac cycle, a cycle that celebrates obstacles overcome, triumphs achieved, and the influences of varied people and experiences along the way. This inspiring memoir is brief and amazing. It's also a collectible, with stunning original cover art from New York artist Richard Lang Chandler. IN THE YEAR OF THE OX is a true gift for anyone who's enduring the trials and tribulations of infertility, cancer treatments, or adoption. I highly recommend it! |
