The Book of Adam: Autobiography of the First Human Clone Robert M. Hopper

2010 Literary Award Finalist - Santa Fe Writers Project: Adam's intimate memoir draws us into a world in which it becomes common to have your genetic twin born after your death. We see this world through the first clone's unique perspective - the bigotry he faces as a youth, haunting dreams of the man from whom he was cloned, and Adam's inner search for his soul. It's a search that's shadowed by his fear of death, and by an inter-generational family drama in which, like the House of Atreus, the players seem fated to struggle with the sins of the father.
