Mirrors and Other Reflections - Paperback

Mirrors is a collection of interconnected essays that recount the author's being adopted as a young child and then spending his boyhood growing up in rural Louisiana. He writes candidly about his troubled teenage years, experimenting with drugs and alcohol, then dropping out of school and working odd jobs. While most of the collection deals with the author's youth, the collection ultimately builds to the final piece, which describes his unexpected discovery of his biological father after taking a DNA test.
