Job of Arc: Reflections on Pedophilia & Intergenerational Abuse (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781935271130)

"An impressively honest and revealing glimpse into the little known world of women who discover their partners are pedophiles. Sophia Ruah captures the reader with rich contextual descriptions that draw us into her life and her painful passage through survival strategies, confusion, and ultimately to tenuous peace and forgiveness." (Lora Bex Lempert) "With true grit remindful of Job's unshakable faith in God and in himself, with fire like Joan of Arc's resolve on behalf of the people and homeland she heroically rescued and reclaimed, Sophia Ruah writes from the heart -- of not just unspeakable pain but of unbridled hope. Within these pages, "Job of Arc" speaks to a wide swath of society -- from those dearest to the author, to strangers whose pain may well exceed her own, appealing to many of our noblest instincts, bequeathing to us words clearly not intended to fill airwaves or inflate egos but rather to advance the human condition." (Jeff Prugh)
