Here is a Review of Deliver Us From Evil:


Hi Deborah,



I read your manuscript. Here is the review you can use and that I will put on Amazon when the time comes. Let me know if there are any changes you would like me to make, or anything specific you would like for me to add, and if it feels right, I would be glad to make changes.

Review on Deliver Us From Evil:

This is Deborah’s honest account of horror, confusion, shame—and recovery.

For those who have been through life-shattering child abuse, Deborah is someone who understands the difficulty in sustaining healthy relationships thereafter and the arduous journey it takes to return to wholeness.

For those who fortunately escaped such experiences, she gives insight into a world of pain for those living in victimization—not only by the perpetrator(s), but also by those who act in disbelief and who wish to silence them rather than offer support. The inability to find safe confidantes, keeps them isolated, imprisoned in silence.

This material, though tragically intimate, is dealt with delicately and ultimately with hope and possibilities for a healthy future. She shares her successes and her failures with equal candor, as well as the tools she used to move out of the darkness.

Deborah gives a list of resources as support for others, as well as evidence that there can be life after trauma and deliverance from (even during) evil.

You were courageous to write this, and I know people who would benefit from reading it. I have a friend whose father was one of those brilliant scientist that the government recruited out of college during the cold war to design bunkers for the president and his men. They were shown horrific films about the end of the world and subliminal material to encourage them to rape their wives and daughters to repopulate the earth. She didn't recover memories for quite some time and of course her mother didn't want to deal with it. In fact, shortly after it was brought up, the mom began encapsulating into dementia.
I suspected, because of some of the things that would pop out of her mouth and the curious expression she would have after she said them, not knowing where that came from. I could keep going on...

There is so much abuse, and the self-esteem movement in the public school just exacerbated it. Now, they are saying there is an up and coming generation of narcissists (and I don't mean the sloppy way people throw that term around as "selfishness"). We are going to need more people willing to expose reality and provide safe places. I appreciate your contribution to that end.

 
Blessings to you!
Kelly
