This November, to recognize and honor National Adoption Awareness Month, I've invited adoptee poet Marci Calabretta Cancio-Bello to curate a folio of poems by 10 Asian American adoptees. This page features “Migrations in Miniature” by 신 선 영 Sun Yung Shin. I invite you to take a moment to read her moving introduction to the folio here, as well as the other nine poems in this collection.

This piece was published as part of the November Adoptee Literature Folio. To see other works from the folio, please visit the table of contents here.
