**International Bestseller**
"I am in awe of your courage...for you to be willing to share the truth of your life is an act of victory and triumph... You are a mighty woman. Thank you for writing this book." ―Oprah Winfrey, Global Media Leader and Host of The Oprah Podcast
What if your greatest protector became your deepest betrayal?
When Caroline Darian received a call from the police, her world cracked in two. Her father―beloved, trusted, admired―had been arrested. What followed was a nightmare no daughter should ever face: the revelation that her mother, Gisèle Pelicot, had been drugged and abused for years―by the man they both called family.
But this memoir isn't just about what happened.
I'll Never Call Him Dad Again is about what happened next.
With unflinching honesty and fierce compassion, Darian tells the story of how she and her mother refused to be defined by silence. Together, they pursued justice in the courtroom―and sparked a global reckoning outside of it. Through the viral #MendorsPas: Stop Chemical Submission: Don't Put Me Under campaign, they've taken on the epidemic of chemical submission and lifted a rallying cry for victims worldwide.
For readers of Know My Name, The Choice, and The Fact of a Body, this is a must-read for anyone drawn to stories of truth, transformation, and fearless resilience.

About the Author
Caroline Darian is a pen name for Caroline Peyronnet. This pen name is very close to Caroline’s heart. It’s actually a contraction of the first names of her two beloved brothers, David and Florian. They are her two pillars, as she likes to say in every interview: “Without them, I’d never have been so strong and determined to be able to undertake everything I’ve done to hope that chemical submission would eventually be recognised as a real public health issue in France. This cause is very close to the hearts of all the three of us: David, Florian and myself.” Caroline is a senior communications manager in a large company in France. She is also the daughter of Gisèle Pelicot and Dominique Pelicot, whose trial in Avignon for the chemical submission, rape and trafficking of his wife has made headlines all over the world.
Caroline’s response to the devastation her family experienced was to help others by raising awareness of this frequently undetected public health issue: domestic chemical submission. She founded the charity M’endors Pas (Stop Chemical Submission: Don’t Put Me Under) to campaign for better overall support for victims and systematic training for all professionals concerned.
