O knihe
A hand scripted letter arrives in a rural mailbox on a vineyard in Northern California saying, "I think you may be my grandmother." This shocking statement instantly dredges up shattering memories, flashbacks at blinding speed of sexual assault, isolation, pain, severance, and shame. There was the promise of closure to a nightmare but also the pain of reliving each episode in a tragic drama with secrets well hidden for 52 years. Will she respond to the letter?
Look back at the times before Roe v Wade when society and laws held women firmly in their grip. Peer into that time when reproductive rights were denied and forced adoptions were the answer of the day. Feel the emotional price one woman had to pay as a graduating college senior, raped and pregnant in 1962, just as she was ready to step into life. Visit the dark scenarios she faced, her struggles to regain dignity and the skills she honed to scale a successful career and create a life well lived. Her successes, however, never erased her earlier traumas. The Unraveling is a parable for today, reminding women of lessons learned and adaptive skills necessary when shamed for being a pregnant unmarried woman in repressive times. Learn how she dealt with:
* The Price of Sexual Assault
* The Price of Unwanted Pregnancy
* The Price of Societal Pressures
* The Price of Shame
* The Price of Censorship
* The Price of Silence
