Description
Lucia Osborne-Crowley's story begins with a violent attack at 15, an event that would change her life forever. Her gymnastics career ended, and she struggled to recover from the physical and emotional trauma. However, it wasn't until a decade later, when she finally shared her secret, that she started to heal. Through her journey, Lucia uncovers profound societal failures - in law, justice, education, and medicine - that contributed to her experience. She finds solace in writing and discovers vulnerability and resilience in the face of trauma. Her story is one of empowerment and survival, as she reclaimed her body and found a way to break free from the cycle of sexual violence. This book offers a powerful exploration of trauma, memory, and survival, shedding light on the need for empathy to overcome the consequences of untreated trauma.
