Review
"Francisco...encourages others to start a dialogue about the ?unspeakable' crime. Francisco warns against keeping quiet: ?Evil is best born when it's fully visible.'" -- "New York Times Book Review""Patricia Francisco has written a beautiful book about the pain of rape. What a feat, to have great measures of wisdom and generosity and love in a book that is also about fear and loss. "Telling" is an important memoir by an eloquent writer." -- Jane Hamilton"Electrifying...beautifully written."-- "Washington Post""I have read many accounts of sexual assault, but I can't remember any as powerful as Patricia Francisco's. This book is remarkable for its intelligence and control of detail, and for the author's refusal to beg for automatic sympathy." -- Rosellen Brown"Francisco draws strength from beauty and artfulness and passes that strength along...I recommend Francisco's book for the sad, wise, and lyrically written lesson in recovery it bears." -- "Hungry Mind Review"
Synopsis
In this intimate memoir, Patricia Weaver Francisco tells of her 15-year journey to recognize and overcome the effects of a violent rape. She explores key aspects of a woman's life in the aftermath of rape - passion, marriage, solitude, childbrith and motherhood.
