Imagine awakening one day to discover absolutely everything you know about your life, your family history, your very identity is wrong. Now...get on with it!In his fascinating, funny and frequently chilling true story of discovery, at age 50, that he was accidentally switched with another baby at birth, Al Mascareñas takes his readers on a headlong trip through growing up and growing older as he seeks to make sense of it all from a disturbingly different--and unasked for--new perspective.
Against the backdrop of mid-century cultural, political (and chemical) upheaval, Mascareñas tells his tale with a unique voice graced by humor and intelligence. He manages to skillfully deliver deep emotional truths unburdened by emotionalism or melodrama.
A compelling story and an enjoyable read that left this reader with a fresh, hopeful sense that the author's larger narrative is far from finished--that the authentic story of who and what we are is ultimately crafted by our own hands in our own time.

A wonderful insightful book on finding his family's "secret". I laughed, cried and remembered how really big our family was. Excellent read
Thanks for a look into this story. It sounds fantastic,how you made a bad situation turn into something good using humor.
If he ever got to meet any of his real family (i.e. siblings), it would be nice if he could write another chapter sharing that with us.
I found this book to be very thought provoking. It made me wonder if my family had any secrets that may change my life and want to research my family's history.
He takes you on a wild ride through his life. As he looks back over how different things have affected him. When you read this, you will look back over your life and do the same.
How many people have dreamed about learning they are from some other family? Hoping that someday your real family will come and take you home. Well he found out that he was "Switched at birth" but it is not a dream come true. I do not want to say too much so you can read this for yourself to find out what happens.
I really enjoyed reading this book and hope he writes more.
Good Work Al!!
