Description
Silent No More by Rebecca Waites offers a powerful and authentic account of life in Belfast during the 1970s. Born into a violent home, Waites shares her story of survival and resilience, detailing her experiences with abuse and the Troubles. As she recounts her life from childhood to middle age and beyond, Waites reveals how she found peace and triumph despite the challenges she faced. Her memoir is a testament to the strength and courage of working-class women who have been overlooked in history. Waites' story is one of hope and healing, as she writes for her children and now hopes to inspire others who feel helpless and alone. This memoir provides a unique perspective on a pivotal moment in Northern Irish history, offering a deeply personal and relatable account of life during a time of turmoil.
