The Blue Flower Curtain (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798218534813)

"It had been 20 days since it all happened. It felt like years had passed. I was sitting on my couch, alone in the living room when the phone rang. I jumped, startled by the sound... They got a break in the case..."

Follow the journey of one woman as she grapples with the many encounters of victim blaming that she faces. Dawn is a 21-year-old woman, newly married, on her way to a party when she is brutally attacked. What was 45 minutes of torture, turns into years of turmoil, fear and mental health issues, and also a lifetime of dedication, determination, and advocacy for other survivors of sexual assault.

This story is a tragic yet beautiful tale of the intimate journey through the ups and downs of navigating her own demons around who was responsible for her attack, overcoming the guilt and shame of something that was never her fault in the first place.

You will be riveted by her account of what happened and how she managed to get through and come out as a thriver and advocate for others.
