Seven-year-old Che Selkirk was raised in isolated privilege by his New
York grandmother. The son of radical student activists at Harvard in the
late sixties, Che has grown up with the hope that one day his parents
will come back for him. So when a woman arrives at his front door and
whisks him away to the jungles of Queensland, he is confronted with the
most important questions of his life: Who is his real mother? Did he
know his real father? And if all he suspects is true, what should he do?
In this artful tale of a young boy's journey, His Illegal Self lifts
your spirit in the most unexpected way.
