Summary of Telling: A Memoir of Rape and Recovery
In this profoundly honest memoir, Patricia Weaver Francisco tells the story of her 15-year journey to uncover and understand the effects of violent rape. She describes her fear during and after the rape in a visceral, unforgettable style, and details the transformation of trauma into strength. This transformation begins by learning to talk about rape, a subject that society would still rather keep locked in darkness. Francisco eloquently illustrates that there are tragic consequences for the survivor and for the culture when we neglect this human story. A compelling and important book, destined to become a classic, Telling can help bring hope and healing to the women who need it, and to their loved ones trying to help them.Abuse Books
