Summary:
"From its insistently resolute opening essay to its final, deeply moving story,
Lived
Through
This is a book that defies conventional wisdom about life in the wake of
sexual
violence
, while putting names and faces on an issue that too often leaves its victims silent and invisible. Part personal history of Anne Ream's own experience rebuilding her life after
violence
, part memoir of a multi-country, multi-year journey spent
listening
to
survivors
,
Lived
Through
This is at once deeply personal and resolutely political. In these pages we are introduced to, among others, the women of Atenco, Mexico, victims of rape and political torture who are speaking out about gender-based
violence
in Latin America; Beth Adubato, a woman who was raped by a popular athlete and then denied justice when her college failed to fully investigate the attack; and Jenny and Steve Bush, a rape survivor and her father who are working together to share Jenny's testimony of surviving rape at the hands of a veteran in order to alter the US military's response to
sexual
violence
committed by those in its ranks. Writing with compassion, candor, and, at times, even much-needed humor, Ream brings us a series of
stories
and essays that are as insistent as they are incisive. Considered individually, her profiles are profoundly moving, and even inspiring. Considered collectively, they are a window into a world where
sexual
violence
is more commonplace than most of us imagine."--From publisher.
