The subject of rape has long been ''unspeakable'' and remains one of the most controversial and emotionally charged issues for society. For Nancy Venable Raine, second only to the soul-breaking burden of her rape at 39 was the silence that shrouded it, a silence born of her own feelings of shame and the incomprehension of others. She uses the redemptive power of language to lift the silence that is rape''s legacy and to promote an understanding of the stigma that haunts rape''s survivors.
Using wide-ranging sources from literature, mythology, psychology and feminist theory, she exposes the complicated damage and response caused by rape. Like William Styron''s book on depression, this should become the definitive work on the effects and recovery of rape, so intelligently and beautifully is it written.
