What We Talk About When We Talk about Rape by Sohaila Abdulali

challenging emotional informative sad tense medium-paced

Well, this was brutal, frustrating, and the content was so deeply relatable it made me physically ill at times. 

Written by a woman who grew up across the world, who has interviewed hundreds (if not thousands) of sexual assault survivors— shared their stories as well as the stories of those who endured but did not survive— this book cuts into the reality of a global patriarchal theme… of purity culture and the disgraceful effects that power and toxicity have on every society.
