Based on the author's experiences. Includes an autobiographical afterword"---Provided by publisher. 520 0 $a A student at NYU in Greenwich Village, Liz McLane is pursuing her dream of becoming a poet and, at the same time, determined to find her birth mother, no matter what the results may be. Through her journals, Liz records her struggle to navigate adoption bureaucracy and laws. In spare and poignant poems, she confides her fears and her prayers. Could her birth mother be the unknown guitarist in Washington Square Park, who sings a soulful song in a strangely familiar voice? Against a backdrop of college life--classes on Alice Munro and Billy Collins and an active social life--and with the help of her sister, friends, and a private investigator, Liz summons the courage to face the truth about her mother and herself. This is an unforgettable novel full of heart that addresses the primary questions all adoptees must answer for themselves: who was the woman who gave me life, and why did she decide to give me away? Based on author Meg Kearney's own experiences. 650 1 $a Novels in verse. 650 1 $a Adoption $v Fiction. 650 1 $a Birthmothers $v Fiction. 650 1 $a Universities and colleges $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Adoption $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Birthmothers $v Fiction. 650 0 $a College stories 650 0 $a Poets $v Fiction. 650 7 $a YOUNG ADULT FICTION $x Adoption. $x Adoption. $2 bisacsh 650 7 $a YOUNG ADULT FICTION $x Novels in Verse. $2 bisacsh 650 7 $a YOUNG ADULT FICTION $x College & University. $x College & University. $2 bisacsh 650 7 $a Adoption $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00797076 650 7 $a Birthmothers $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00833291 650 7 $a College stories $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00867954 650 7 $a Poets $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01067778 650 7 $a Adoption $v Fiction. $2 sears 650 7 $a Birthmothers $v Fiction. $2 sears 650 7 $a Universities and colleges $v Fiction. $2 sears 651 1 $a New York (N.Y.) $v Fiction. 651 0 $a New York (N.Y.) $v Fiction. 651 7 $a New York (State) $z New York. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01204333 651 7 $a New York (N.Y.) $v Fiction. $2 sears 655 7 $a Autobiographical fiction. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01986487 655 4 $a Novels in verse. 655 7 $a Fiction. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01423787 655 7 $a Novels in verse. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01921724 655 7 $a Autobiographical fiction. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Novels in verse. $2 lcgft 830 0 $a Lizzie McLane series ; $v 3. 941 $a 2 952 $l PNAX964 $d 20230602010452.0 952 $l NPSX771 $d 20220129011453.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=B53334CC029211E9995FCDF696128E48 994 $a Z0 $b IX2Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
