Why read it?
1 author picked Resurrection After Rape as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
Resurrection After Rape: A Guide to Transforming from Victim to Survivor is a therapeutic book with personal stories, artwork, and transformative writing exercises that can be life-changing for rape survivors.

I recommend that this book be worked through with a therapist or someone else trained in sexual violence.
From Robert's list on sexual violence, hope and healing.
