Description

Adam's memoir draws us into a world where it's soon common to have your genetic twin born after your death: the bigotry he faces in youth, haunting dreams of the man from whom he was cloned, and his inner search for his soul. A search shadowed by his fear of death and a multigenerational family drama in which, like the House Atreus, the players seem fated to struggle with the sins of the father.

Loved this book and missed the characters as soon as I was finished. The story was well thought out and insightful.

This is a really good book. It successfully maintains a balance of melancholy and humor throughout. It's suspenseful. It has characters that you care about. It deserves to be more widely read. My congratulations to the author!

(I purchased this at iBooks)

This book is terrific, and I gave it a good recommendation at MobileRead. It is a book about the best and worst of humanity, and what it means to be human. This book made me think, to wonder what about myself I would and would not want a future version of myself to know. The writer is talented and has made a very enjoyable book. I couldn't put it down and finished it in two days. I highly recommend this book.
