The Carolyne Letters: A Story of Birth, Abortion and Adoption

By Abigail B. Calkin and Abigail B Calkin

Book Overview

Amelia: young, naive, in love. Geoff: charming, narcissistic, intelligent. In a decidedly European affair, a young couple consummates a courtship destined for differences. The resultant pregnancy provides a haunting yet charming backdrop for the challenges of love and its often unwanted decisions. In the first person and in a creative journal style, author Abigail Calkin explores three choices that Amelia can make--give birth, give the baby up for adoption, or abortion. The resultant exploration and mature reflection provides a unique and rich literary backdrop for the choices each young woman faces when pregnant.
