Philomena : a mother, her son, and a fifty-year search
Sixsmith, Martin2013
Large Print
'Philomena' is the tale of a mother and a son whose lives were scarred by the forces of hypocrisy on both sides of the Atlantic and of the secrets they were forced to keep. A compelling narrative of human love and loss, Martin Sixsmith's moving account is both heartbreaking yet ultimately redemptive.
