Finding Fish: A Memoir - Softcover

Finding Fish reads like a great work of fiction, moving me alternately to tears and laughter, sorrow and joy, and making me forget at times that the story is astonishingly true (Denzel Washington ?This stunning autobiography rises above the success fables from survivors of America?s inner cities...this engrossing book is a classic? Publisher?s Weekly ?Fisher?s gripping memoir is an inspiring story of one man?s journey, a tale o as does his retroactive tenderness toward the boy no one else loved? Time)

Now a major motion picture starring and directed by Denzel Washington, Finding Fish is an amazing autobiography of Antwone Quenton Fisher who at the age of two was placed in a foster home in Cleveland, Ohio where he was treated with brutality and cruelty. His response to this treatment was to retreat into his own private world of paintings, poems and stories. At the age of eighteen, Antwone Fisher enlisted in the Navy where he found empathy and friendship. Antwone?s story takes us from the Navy to his job as a prison officer and, later, as a security guard at Sony Pictures in Hollywood. In a moving conclusion, the mystery of his identity is revealed as Antwone returns to Cleveland to locate his mother and father?s surviving family members.
