I'll Never Call Him Dad Again: Turning Our Family Trauma of Sexual Assault and Chemical Submission into a Collective Fight by Caroline Darian

4.5

dark emotional reflective fast-paced

---

An important book for raising awareness but not an easy read due to a fairly literal translation from French. It’s in the form of diary-like reflections and comes across at times as a stream of consciousness.
