At twenty-eight, adoptee Michael Huffman went blind on a train bound for Hamburg, days before starting his first job in corporate America. The doctors wanted his family medical history in an era of 'closed' adoptions and Michael didn't have it. Piecing together disparate clues he began his search, one that would launch a journey not only to his biological roots, but to the origins of his very identity. With humor, depth and a touch of magic, Huffman's tale explores the universal feeling of being a misfit that collapses when we understand what the "self" and "family" really are. The book is a celebration of the value and importance of finding home.
