Imagine waking one day to discover you have forgotten everything about your life. Your only link with the past, your only hope for the future, is your identical twin. Now imagine, years later, discovering that your twin had not told you the truth about your childhood and the forces that had shaped you. Why the secrets? Why the silences? You have no choice but to begin again. This has been Alex's reality: a world where memories are just the stories people tell you. With dogged courage Alex spent years searching for the truth about his past. This quest to understand his true identity revealed shocking betrayals and a secret tragedy. Marcus his twin brother has been a sometimes reluctant companion on this journey, but for him too it has led to staggering revelations and ultimately the shedding of impossible burdens.

Disturbing, funny, heart-breaking and affirming, Alex and Marcus's determination to rebuild their lives makes us look afresh at how we choose to tell our stories. Tell Me Who I Am is the story of unimaginable adversity and of a redemption founded on brotherly love. 'Beautifully written, it poses key questions about selfhood and honesty' DAILY EXPRESS
