Shadows of a Dark-Alley Adoptee: Poetry by Ohio adoptee Wendy Blitzer Barkett

Columbus-born adoptee Wendy Blitzer Barkett has just published a new book of poetry:  Shadows of a Dark- Alley Adoptee: An Adoptee's Search for Self.

Wendy's"official" search for her mother Dottye Robertson Moore, and her own history, began when she was18  (and like many of us started "unofficially" much earlier) and continues.  Dottye herself was adopted and died in a traffic accident in 1973,  making things  more complicated.  Wendy's  search has taken her on several cross-country trips, and has been covered b the Columbus Dispatch and Fox Channel 5 in Las Vegas

You can read about Wendy's incredible and frustrating search, now in its third decade at Remembering Dottye.

Shadows of a Dark Alley Adoptee is available on amazon.com. I'm ordering one.
