Author Alana Lindberg Jolley’s New Book, "My Father Had No Children," Follows the Author’s Journey of Discovering Her Father’s Identity and Her Own Sense of Self

San Juan Caistrano, CA, September 30, 2024 --(PR.com)-- Alana Lindberg Jolley, a loving wife and mother of seven who has written for historical magazines and journals and has been a museum director and professor of Cultural Anthropology, has completed her new book, “My Father Had No Children”: an intimate exploration of identity and familial connection that centers around the author’s journey to uncover the truth about her father, Walter Bert Lindberg, and in turn, to discover who she truly is. You can learn more about Alana on her website, https://itsallaboutculture.com/.

In “My Father Had No Children,” readers are invited to follow along on Alana Lindberg Jolley’s quest of discovering her father’s identity after being told by the Social Security Administration that her father, Walter Lindberg, had no children. This news shakes her to the core and leads her on an emotional journey as she questions her own identity and attempts to reconcile the conflicting information about a father she never knew.

As Jolley navigates the labyrinthine bureaucracy and confronts the emotional turmoil of potentially not being her father's biological child, her search for the truth takes readers on a journey through her father’s life, including his upbringing, education, and wartime experiences. Along the way, she grapples with the sense of loss and confusion that accompanies the struggle to understand one’s origins.

“If you don’t know who you are, how do you know why you were born?” writes Jolley. “My journey has revolved around learning who my father was, to find out who I am.

“I wrote this book for my father, Walter Bert Lindberg, for my family, and for his posterity. I also wrote it for all children who feel lost and need to know where they came from and what life possibilities might be opened for them. Even in the sunset of our lives, we are still the children of those who have gone before us.”

Engaging and candid, “My Father Had No Children” offers a heartfelt account that speaks to a universal longing for connection and understanding, resonating with anyone who has ever felt lost or disconnected from their past.
