OverviewSome families are made by biology. Some by paperwork. Some by the daily accumulation of ordinary love. In these twenty-one essays, Lakshmi Iyer traces the arc of one such family - from years of infertility and failed adoptions, to the Thursday night phone call that changed everything, to the particular joy and complexity of raising white children as a brown mother in America. Moving through questions of identity, race, immigration, and what it means to belong to a family the world cannot easily read, The Smudged Hyphen is written with candor and tenderness. These are essays about the life that forms at the hyphen - between cultures, between families, between the self we show the world and the one we keep for ourselves. A book for anyone who has ever had to explain their family, or chosen not to.
