Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The author was born in the wheat belt of Western Australia. She spent the happy years of her early childhood in a Perth suburb. Then her mother became ill and died. Her father began insisting on nuddy-cuddles. Sexual abuse within the family rapidly escalated.And at 17 she escaped to the other side of the country. The author does not describe herself as a victim. Nor does she describe herself as a survivor. Incest happens and she sees herself simply as a person it happened to. Without self-pity, she states what happened - and how it happened - in sharp, unflinching sentences. Her style is straight-forward and straight-shooting and the effect is devastating.
