Publisher's Synopsis

The wounds that are unveiled in these stories are much deeper than the physical eye can comprehend. The bleeding from the wounds have subsided, however the scaring tissue underneath the coating of the skin remains. This journey becomes more than a depiction of descriptive accounts of trauma related occurrences. It connects the average woman to a universal stage by which our indignant pain transcends cultural, socio-economic, political, professional, racial, and religious discriminatory biases. This universal platform is where the women in the book find their most sought after peace and freedom.

These women, much like woman all around the country, exemplify the type of bravery, resilience, and statuette presence that embodies a true heroic icon. Enjoy the Journey!
