Elly
      Danica
      said
      in
      an
      interview
      on
      CBC
      radio
      that
      it
      took
      a
      lot
     
     
      of
      persuasion
      and
      support
      from
      her
      friends
      to
      get
      her
      to
      publish
     
     
      this
      book.
      The
      reasons
      are
      quite
      obvious,
      it
      is
      a
      personal
      journal
     
     
      ofall
      the
      terrible
      things
      this
      woman
      has
      been
      through,
      and
      it
      is
     
     
      not
      meant
      as
      a
      narrative
      of
      the
      story,
      but
      to
      tell
      the
      emotions
      of
     
     
      the
      story.
      The
      book
      was
      not
      meant
      to
      be
      read
      as
      literature,
      it
      is
     
     
      jumbled
      and
      doesn’t
      flow
      at
      all,
      but
      it
      is
      an
      extremely
      power-
     
     
      fully
      written
      emotional
      trip.
      It
      is
      an
      important
      expression
      of
     
     
      hope
      for
      the
      adult
      survivor
      who
      has
      none
      while
      informing
      the
     
     
      lucky
      people
      who
      didn’t
      experience
      this
      about
      how
      it
      felt
      and
     
     
      how
      it
      still
      feels..
