Opis

All she ever wanted was love. Instead, Vickie Walber grew up with violence as her constant companion. At the age of fifteen, she runs away to Seattle and meets Celeste, a fellow runaway. Kindred spirits, together they begin a journey of personal freedom and empowerment, unaware of the amazing odyssey on which they are about to embark. Famous on the strip club circuit for her talent and for bringing success wherever she goes, money pours in from every direction. But abusive relationships and the haze of drugs, alcohol, and prostitution catches up with her in Alaska where, with her life falling apart, the only answer seems to come in the barrel of a gun. A haunting look into the dark side of the American Dream, Walber's memoir is a harrowing, infuriating, and extraordinary testament to the power of the human will. Filled with uncommon courage and bracing honesty, Angel of the Flesh will shock you, crush you, and inspire you.
