Sample Book Insights:

#1 I was born in 1945, after my mother had been divorced for her adultery. My sister, Sylvia, was born in 1947, and this event provided my mother with the grounds to finally divorce my father for his adultery.

#2 I grew up in a small town in Scotland, surrounded by cold and hostility. I was raised by my mother, grandmother, and aunt, who were all very religious. I was often screamed at, and I cried a lot.

#3 My grandfather, who had taken a liking to me, had a traumatic impact on my early development. He was a good man, but he had a secret life of sexual abuse that he couldn’t control.

#4 I had lost the good aspect of my grandfather as well as the painful trauma of his abuse. I had wished him gone, and he had gone, leaving behind the stark memory of the uncertain fact of his disappearance. I was told that he was in heaven, but I knew not where that was.
