Behind Closed Doors

In this thought-provoking audiobook, shortlisted for the Orwell Prize for Political Writing, listeners are introduced to the personal stories of parents affected by a controversial child welfare system. It reveals the experiences of a diverse range of voices, including social workers, judges, and foster parents, who confront a growing crisis where more children than ever are being removed from their families. Highlighting systemic issues like prejudice and the impact of poverty, the narrative sheds light on the complexities of a system that often overlooks the nuances of family life and parental love.
