商品簡介

商品簡介

Tony and Megan Rossi are watching a TV special that takes place in India. It features two 7 year-old male and female twins. They are ragpickers, those millions who scour trash-heaps as high as hillocks for scraps to sell for food. The children, Raj and Aruna, catch the eye of the childless couple. Megan instantly falls in love with them and wants to adopt. Tony identifies with the kids, because he owns a recycling plant in Phoenix, Arizona. Both he and the kids are in the same business-recycling.


Thus begins an adventure of international intrigue. The world watches when white, middle-class Americans adopt two dark, foreign children, returning with them to begin their home-schooling and adaptation to an utterly strange new world.


Problems arise when the new parents quickly discover both children are exceptionally gifted. Raj's IQ proves to be beyond genius, but he is plagued with medical issues and visions. Attacks are made on the twins, as racial tensions mount. The white-supremacy movement is alive and well.


The two children struggle to find their own identity, trying to balance what they once were with what they now have. Aruna scrabbles toward balance through fame while Raj's mind is set free in an effort to save humanity from itself, but falls on his own sword. In an examination of the recycling industry and even questioning the existence of God, Sneller presents a parody of technology itself.


With ample twists and turns, The Unusual Adoption is guaranteed to either anger or excite the reader at some level.
