Riassunto

Most girls’ childhood secrets vanish like a dream. Not so with Vicky Lester. Her secret languished for years, like an unending life-long nightmare. Debut novelist Ron Knight tells the shocking story of a victimized young woman who is tormented by childhood events, then acts out the tortuous playbook of her youth as if possessed – propelling her on a provocative and promiscuous journey.Vindicating Vicky is about manipulation, weakness and compulsion. It’s not about the thrill of sex. It’s about the utter despair the sex can’t conceal.Struggling for a brighter future, and emboldened by her friend Stan, Vicky must navigate through dangerous new territories and overcome the victimization that’s controlled her for so long. Can she ultimately find a better life...?

Su questo libro

L'autore:

“I’ve lived in various inner cities, and over the years, I’ve become increasingly aware of the hardships faced by disaffected young women and wanted to write a story that both exposed these conditions to the unaware and offered hope to those living through it. In the final analysis, this is a story that explores the power of friendship, the importance of questioning assumptions, and the need to define ourselves in our own terms. I'm attempting to show people that the fallen women one often reads about are often regretful and remorseful about their state of living. Vindicating Vicky is discernible from the title- vindication. I was struck by the neatness of this word’s definition as the “clearing of wrongdoing” or “justification of an action or deed.” I believe this is extremely appropriate to the story as it revolves around a beautiful, vulnerable young woman’s quest to justify herself in the face of past misfortune.”
