If you are looking for a book that mirrors the film, this is not it. If you are looking for the real story of a man torn because a nunnery in Ireland forced unwed girls to give up their babies, this is it. It is really about him and his feeling he must have a fundamental "badness" or else why would his birth mother have given him away? This feeling kept him from being truly happy for much of his life. Besides being in a business and culture that more than scorned gays. This is the true story of a gay man who ended up working for the Reagan administration and changed the U.S. to this day defending a gerrymandering suit. All the while his heart was longing to find his birth mother as was hers to find him. This book has deep details about one mans gay life that also reflects the nature of others. Hard to put down and hard to read because the truth of the situation is a tragedy.
I was deeply moved by the movie Philomena, and I was curious to see what Martin Sixsmith actually wrote after his research. I didn't anticipate the book would deal mostly with the life of Philomena's son, Anthony Lee, who became Michael Hess once he was adopted, but I am glad it did. I feel I now know "the rest of the story". He was indeed a "lost child" in more ways than one. In this book Martin Sixsmith reveals details that had been eluded to in the film. Sadly Michael had a difficult life, full of conflicts despite what he made of himself in order to establish a successful career in government and politics. I am not sure he was ever truly as happy as he was those first few years with Philomena at the convent in Ireland. Though forgotten, that time and his biological mother stayed embedded in his subconscious with bits and pieces surfacing from time to time. I was touched by his inner struggles with family, his never- ending search for a sense of belonging, and the challenges of his homosexuality. I didn't enjoy reading details of the practices among some gay men, but I suppose the telling was necessary to reveal how bizarre and conflicted Michael's life actually became. His few true friends, those who deeply loved him, never abandoned him and were his saving grace in his lowest times and even after his death. Michael's story is one of tragedy, heartbreak, and loss, but redeemed in the end as a story of love.
This was the book that inspired the movie but it's much different than the movie. It focuses more of the story on "Michael", Philomena's son, that she was forced to give up for adoption in the early 50's. Much of the book focuses on his homosexuality, that forces him to remain closeted in most of his public life. The book was most interesting to me when it describes Michael, a Democrat and lawyer, working for the Republican National Committee during the Reagan years. The behind-the-scenes political maneuvering that the author describes was very interesting.The book does describe Philomena's search for her long, lost son and some of the appalling practices of the Catholic Church in Ireland of that era but most of the book focuses on Michael: his struggle with his homosexuality; his struggles with the contradictions between his political beliefs and his job and lastly the terrible way the government ignored the scourge of AIDS.
I have no idea what book these reviews are from because this book is NOT about a mother's connection to her lost son but a book about the life of a baby ripped from his mother's arms and how he struggled, lived, and died feeling alone and abandoned but never giving up on finding his mother. This book speaks LITTLE of his mother's journey which is totally opposite of what is portrayed in the movie with Judy Dench. This is a compelling story of a man's life, lived as a homosexual in a time when this was thought to be a conscious decision to live a life this way, and the struggle to find his own identity and ultimately face the horrible AIDS epidemic of the times. The book IS NOT about the mother except in the beginning but certainly does not go through the search for her son later. This is no judgement on her or her grief, pain, and struggle about the loss of her son, but the delusion that if you read this book that is what you will find. That is NOT the case. This book is about her son, plain and simple, and it touched me deeply and I actually cried over the life of this man.
That Philomena's story is true makes it more heart retching. We cannot properly evaluate the events of 60 years ago using today's frames of reference. However, to separate a child from his/her mother must always remain as a last resort; if it is for the child's benefit. The story touched me more so than others who did not live within 15 miles of where Michael's adult life took place. No, I never met Michael and our paths would not have intersected as we travelled in circles on different professional planes. And, some of Michael's life style events are familiar. The movie taken from this book is good. However, it could not show the depth of Philomena's pain and loss. She does have a blessing that other young women in here situation may never have - Philomena is able to visit Michael's final resting place and knows some of his life's experiences.
This is an amazingly compelling book, not necessarily "literature" but nevertheless a riveting story. There are so many cultural issues raised: From the treatment of orphans by the Irish Catholic Church in the middle of the 20th Century to the treatment of the AIDS epidemic by the Republucan Party in the 1980's. Many very emotional and personal events take place, and they are all revealed with sensitivitity. Please don't think that if you have seen the movie you know the story. The book is almost entirely about the boy and his journey in life. This story made me laugh, cry, become angry, and thoughtful.
