Reseña del libro "In Zhavey's Eyes: Don't Tell Anyone"
This groundbreaking book shadows a young, elementary-aged, school girl as she recalls traumatic events of sexual coercion and sexual manipulation, while walking through key stages of the healing process from sexual abuse; from disclosing the unsayable, anger, protecting her perpetrator, grief, shame, and self-blame to ultimately trusting her family and herself enough to muster the courage to seek resolution. Through a collection of compiled interviews in a storytelling format, Zhavey takes readers on a narration of her journey as she navigates complex police, medical, child protection, and legal systems after her grandfather was caught sexually molesting her. Zhavey's compelling story of crisis, growth, and triumph is a galvanizing resource entrenched with invaluable insight for survivors, family members, friends, and specialists. It includes empowering and emotional accounts of Zhavey facing her sexual abuser in federal court during a three-year trial that sentenced her grandfather to life in prison. Although she faces staggering life challenges, she finds strength, love, support, and encouragement through the heroic responses from her Mom, Nana, family, and professionals.
