Reseña del libro "Faces of Rape: Time to Tell (en Inglés)"
Over 95,000 reported rapes occurred in 2016, which means that, in that year, someone, somewhere, was raped, on average, every six minutes. And that only accounts for the reported rapes. Such an attack affects the targeted victim, to be sure. But the ripples of pain, tears and trauma spread in exploding, concentric circles outward from the victim to engulf partners, parents, siblings, friends and coworkers in a never-ending cycle of dealing with the aftermath. In FACES OF RAPE, you will meet many hesitant-but brave-spokespersons for those who are often shunned, silenced and forgotten by society. Rape is the one crime that, for some reason, brings shame on its victims, and, too often, congratulatory slaps on the back to its perpetrators. In raw, intense, candid accounts, men and women share their heartbreak, their failures and their triumphs. If you, or someone you know, has been raped, this book will make you angry, and this book will give you hope. Through solidarity-knowing that others have walked where you may be walking and are still here to live, breathe and succeed-you will realize that there is life after rape, and there is strength even after debilitating weakness.
