Names and Voices - A Life Reclaimed

A soul-baring deep dive into one woman's story, Names and Voices - A Life Reclaimed is a powerful work of creative non-fiction, written in spare and poignant prose by Supriti Sisquoc Anwa. Born in 1947, the forbidden and dangerous fruit of an illicit affair between a black man and white woman in Spokane, Washington, Supriti weaves an inspiring, compelling and riveting tale of her life and times, an American story of racism, redemption and hope. Given up at birth, Supriti survives her years of despair in a Catholic orphanage and the foster care system of the 1940s, and searches for her roots in a spiritual odyssey that spans Africa, India and the US. In a telling that is full of compassion and love, Supriti heals her life, meets her guru Amma, and finally reunites with her long-lost family. Whether we are survivors of trauma, or just ordinary people looking for connection, Supriti lights a flame of encouragement in our hearts. We all seek to belong. Supriti's story shows us the way.
