Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

From poignant to humorous - twenty true stories and five poems embodying the rich tapestry of struggles, emotions and triumphs that define our lives and the cathartic, healing power of speaking your truth.¿The Memory Keepers, a group of eleven seasoned women, share intimate stories from the perspective of time, distance and hard-earned wisdom.These writers touch on uniquely personal yet emotionally relatable themes - love, the joy and loss of deep friendship; coping with dementia; toxic relationships; menopause and late-life dating exploits.Some venture into more off-beat territory - surviving three months in a US jail; exploitation in a spiritual cult; corruption and rural life in West Africa and the hedonistic 1980s London drug scene.Others untangle intricate webs of family dynamics; physical, sexual and psychological abuse; grief for the death of a daughter; teenage pregnancy; working with terminally ill children and the loss of newborn grandchildren.A must-read for anyone who has ever longed to be heard and understood, Back The Way We Came will inspire you to dig deep, unveil your stories and shine your light.
