Riassunto

The reader will be drawn irresistably into the world of the author whopresents a catalogue of abuse and cruelty suffered by herself as an innocentchild, first at the hands of her alcoholic father, then by nuns, and laterby a heartless husband who raped and beat her. This is compulsive reading.The book shows how the shadow of a father's cruelty can be cast over thewhole life of a child--a child who, in this instance, never failed to turnthe other cheek, or return love for cruelty and abuse, who manifested, inthe end, the overriding power and strength of Christ who advocated loveabove all things. The book is a protest against domestic violence andinstitutionalised cruelty, and will hopefully stand as a beacon and warningagainst the violations suffered by so many Emelias whose heartfelt cries gounheard behind the closed or locked doors of our apparently respectablewestern civilization.
