Brought to you by Penguin. The government told a story about me before I was born. Jenni Fagan was property of the state before birth. She drew her first breath in care and by the age of seven, she had lived in fourteen different homes and had her name changed multiple times.

It is about the very human act of making meaning from adversity. 'Beautiful, deep, transfixing . . . it will burn a home in your heart' LEMN SISSAY 'Essential reading, life-changing' SAMANTHA MORTON 'An astonishing piece of work' NIALL GRIFFITHS ???
