Daniel Freeman was eighteen years old when his mother, Johnnie, sat him down at the kitchen table for a serious conversation. What she told him changed his life forever.


Johnnie was not his mother.


Join Daniel, the mixed-race son of an internationally known African-American artist, as he discovers a collection of personal letters that reveal astonishing, secret details of his birth and life. Sit and read along with him, as things family members only talked about in hushed conversations, are finally brought to light.


A unique narrative of life in post-war Europe, the complications of immigration law and the politics of citizenship, and a divorce case that kept a child separated from his parents until love finally reunited them.



Early Reviews for The Letters are raving:


"The narrative reads like a dialogue between the author and the reader... You will experience Freeman's] emotions and his journey first hand... A fascinating look at an era long gone."

--Rabia Tanveer for Readers' Favorite; ★★★★★



" An] extraordinary memoir of the author's family history, which had for decades been quite intentionally shrouded in mystery... An incredible work for its literary merits and the story itself, which is instantly engrossing and a beautiful labor of love on Freeman's part."

--Jamie Michele for Readers' Favorite; ★★★★★
