Evelyn Robinson has followed up the international success of her first book "Adoption and Loss - The Hidden Grief", by writing and publishing, in 2004, a companion volume called "Adoption and Recovery - Solving the mystery of reunion". This unique book, based on Evelyn's personal and professional experiences, is essential reading, both for those who have read and appreciated her first book and for those who want to understand the long term impact of adoption separation on people's lives and the meaning of the reunion experience.
From the Author
After publishing "Adoption and Loss - The Hidden Grief", I was contacted by many who had read and been deeply affected by it. I subsequently travelled both within Australia and in New Zealand, the United States, Canada, England, the Republic of Ireland, Scotland and Northern Ireland, presenting seminars and meeting those who had a personal experience of adoption, as well as therapists working in post-adoption counselling. I became aware, from all of those interactions, that many were struggling to understand what drove those who had been separated from family members by adoption to seek them out later in life and by the issues which arose when reunions occurred. I have written this book in the hope of supporting and enlightening those people. "Adoption and Recovery – Solving the mystery of reunion" is the first book to explain the dynamics of the reunion experience within a grief framework.
