Publisher's Synopsis
They say, "Misery loves Company," a hard to believe in that adage when today we're all too busy hiding our miseries. This book gives us back the freedom to look at our aws through a magnifying glass. By presenting authentic, raw, and unabridged stories, you will be able to connect with the most imperfect version of yourself, but at the same time the most humanly one. You will be in a privileged position to peer into the brains of the protagonists and understand each of their unfortunate life decisions. Through their experiences you will be confronted with the issues that have defined their lives, without a chance to confess, unless they had been unmasked by malicious gossip. Accompany these anonymous antiheroes in their revenge, cowardice, incest, and shamefulness. You'll have the satisfaction of judging and empathizing with their stories, of course that depends on how each one of them awakens your own misery. Louise Simpson Phillips is an alternative therapist who has dedicated much of her life to provide her clients with the tools to allow them to accept who they really are. She is an expert in navigating the murky waters of issues we do not want to recognize in ourselves. The life of the author herself is the clearest example that misadventures and mistakes can ultimately lead to a successful life. Thanks to her years of experience, she has compiled stories that, although at first glance may seem disturbing, reflect the most visceral and complete reality of the human being.
