Why read it?
1 author picked I Feel Real Guilty as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
This memoir addresses a rarely discussed form of trauma: sibling sexual abuse.
With honesty and vulnerability, Epstein recounts the delayed unraveling of repressed memories, the emotional aftermath, and her journey toward healing. The book also raises awareness of the widespread but often overlooked impact of this form of abuse. The author and I both dissociated from our trauma in order to survive.
From Babs' list on memorable memoirs of resilient women.
