Description
Jeannie Vanasco's memoir Things We Didn't Talk About When I Was a Girl is a powerful exploration of trauma, survival and the complexities of human relationships. Fifteen years after a devastating event, Jeannie revisits her past to process her conflicted feelings and take back control. Through transcribed conversations with her rapist and discussions with closest friends, Jeannie sheds light on the culture and language surrounding sexual assault and rape. This thought-provoking memoir is a necessary contribution to the wider conversation around sexual violence from a brave new voice. With deep self-consciousness, courage and nuance, Vanasco reveals the inner universe of her survivorship, creating a language for something we don't often talk about.
