This striking graphic novel gives an insider's view of the trauma caused by childhood sexual exploitation. It tackles complex issues, including victim-blaming, traumatic memory and dissociation, but is ultimately hopeful, showing how victims can be good parents and come to terms with their past through therapy, art and caring relationships.
"And suddenly I am flooded... terror, shame, despair, horror, disgust."
"How can I talk about things I can't pin down?"
