Opis

A compelling true story from a courageous, insightful woman who blocks the memory of incest, rape and other traumas from her mind for decades. Pilar, a Spanish immigrant to the U.S. via Columbia during its most dangerous times, seemed to have acheived the American Dream when she wed her English teacher who later became a successful lawyer. With a husband by her side, and two wonderful daughters, she seemed to have it all, even while trying to help her mother and siblings deal with numerous legal, health, and emotional issues. PILAR, as told to Barbara Rich, brings to life those almost blinding moments of recollection and insight which we though we may try to suppress, they mold us from the darkness nonetheless.
