Genre: Autobiography
350 pages
Publisher Fixwrite - web:

Distributed by M Pugh
RRP: $29.95
ISBN: 978-0-9802845-2-2

About the author: Merlene Fawdry spent over a quarter of a century working with Youth and Family Services, Victoria, toward de-institutionalisation for children and young people and the alleviation & prevention of youth homelessness. A published writer and poet, she runs workshops and provides individual mentoring in all aspects of memoir and life story writing.

About the book: The psychology and sociology of adoption is complex. Many adoptive parents have experienced the grief of their inability to bear a child; a deep disappointment leading to uncertainty and loss of self esteem. Through adoption they restore, to some extent, their social respectability and personal worth, oblivious to the child’s primal wound of separation. The child who is placed with adoptive parents soon after birth is denied the experience of the biological sequence that begins in the womb; the merging of the physiological with the psychological that forms the post partum bond. The resultant collision between the needs of the adoptive parent and adoptee has the capacity to magnify the pain for each and shatter the illusion irrevocably.In The Little Mongrel, Merlene writes about her personal experience of growing up as an adoptee in Tasmania in the 1950s, her sense of disconnectedness within her adoptive family, and her longing for her birth mother’s return. This mother/child separation forms the genesis of the many fears that dominate her life and drives her search for invisibility.
