Identical Strangers: A Memoir of Twins Separated and Reunited

Identical Strangers: A Memoir of Twins Separated and Reunited - Elyse Schein

Identical Strangers: A Memoir of Twins Separated and Reunited

Schein and Bernstein learned as adults that not only were they identical twins and separated at birth through adoption, but they were also part of a secret study on separated twins. This is the amazing story of two women coming to terms with the strange and unbelievable hand fate has dealt them.
As seen in the hit documentary Three Identical Strangers - "[A] poignant memoir of twin sisters who were split up as infants, became part of a secret scientific study, then found each other as adults."--Reader's Digest (Editors' Choice) WINNER OF A BOOKS FOR A BETTER LIFE AWARD Elyse Schein had always known she was adopted, but it wasn't 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. What's 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, Paula's 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 mother's past, the sisters move closer toward solving the puzzle of their lives. Praise for Identical Strangers "Remarkable . . . powerful . . . [an] extraordinary experience . . . The reader is left to marvel at the reworking of individual identities required by one discovery and then another."--Boston Sunday Globe

"Absorbing."--Wired "[A] fascinating memoir . . . Weaving studies about twin science into their personal reflections . . . Schein and Bernstein provide an intelligent exploration of how identity intersects with bloodlines. A must-read for anyone interested in what it means to be a family."--Bust

"Identical Strangers has all the heart-stopping drama you'd expect. But it has so much more--the authors' emotional honesty and clear-eyed insights turn this unique story into a universal one. As you accompany the twins on their search for the truth of their
