The Bruises You Can't See With Rachel Louise Snyder
Listen now
Description
Rachel Louise Snyder wrote an inspiring, heartbreaking, and empowering book that every woman in this country should read. She spoke to me about her book, her passion, and how women can support each other. Rachel explains how we can all protect ourselves and heal from the bruises we can't see due to domestic violence.   “How do you write a book about overcoming extreme hardship, about the singular people who convince you to take a chance on yourself, about finding the big world after a childhood that prepared you for a tiny one, about discovering that you love the people who failed to love you - and manage not to strike a single trite note? How do you remember every detail and make the reader feel like they saw, heard, and felt each moment? I have no idea, actually, but Rachel Louise Snyder has done it.”   –Masha Gessen, National Book Award-winning author of The Future Is History and Surviving Autocracy
