| From a disastrous decade in foster care to Harvard Law School and beyond: this is the profoundly moving memoir of one boy who beat the system. |
|
From the Publisher:
Relates the author's harrowing family circumstances that led to his placement in the equally daunting foster-care system, and describes how he beat the odds through high academic achievement. |
Annotation:
Andrew Bridge's memoir chronicles his harrowing experiences of being torn from his young mother's custody and placed in the California foster-care program where he suffered at the hands of a cruel foster mother who had herself suffered through a German concentration camp. Finally, before escaping to college (he would eventually graduate from Harvard Law School), Bridge at last reunited with his biological mother. This is a lonely and desperate tale, punctuated by fleeting moments of hope and love.
