From nothing, she had to craft something, and that something happened to be all of her.
Baby Girl was born in an unknown city to unknown parents. She lived for nine days before all evidence of her existence was locked away somewhere in Florida. Baby Girl would be reborn K.C. Sanford to live a new life in a new family. Since learning of her adoption as a child, K.C. struggled to understand her sense of self. She fell victim to the closed adoption system where knowing your identity was against the law. Who is K.C. Sanford? Decades of searching and a message from a stranger would start to unravel the mystery.
“Storked! Adoption Secrecy and the Search for Identity by K.C. Sanford is a profound meditation on adoption that is part mystery and part David and Goliath story, and an original combination of memoir and autofiction.”
