Father to the fatherless

FINDING MY FATHER:
How the Gospel Heals the Pain of
Fatherlessness
By Blair Linne (with Shai Linne)
The Good Book Company. 160 pages. £8.99
ISBN 978 1 784 986 469

This moving book begins with the poignant words: ‘The section on my birth certificate reserved for my father’s name is blank.’

Blair Linne is a Spoken Word Poet from the United States, who uses her skill with words to tell her own story of fatherlessness. This is a stirring account, well told.
