Identical Strangers: A Memoir of Twins Separated and Reunited
of Paula Bernstein (Goodreads Author)
Description
Elyse Schein had always known she was adopted, but it wasnât until her mid-thirties while living in Paris that she searched for her biological mother. What she found instead was shocking: She had an identical twin sister. Whatâs more, after being separated as infants, she and her sister had been, for a time, part of a secret study on separated twins.Paula Bernstein, a married writer and mother living in New York, also knew she was adopted, but had no inclination to find her birth mother. When she answered a call from her adoption agency one spring afternoon, Paulaâs life suddenly divided into two starkly different periods: the time before and the time after she learned the truth. As they reunite, taking their tentative first steps from strangers to sisters, Paula and Elyse are left with haunting questions surrounding their origins and their separation. And when they investigate their birth motherâs past, the sisters move closer toward solving the puzzle of their lives.
