AbstractHistoryArchive Description
'For eight weeks, 12 Aboriginal women met every Friday to learn about different styles of writing. They used writing as a means to express their experiences with domestic violence ... each workshop would focus on one key style of writing including poetry, prose, letter writing, diary writing, autobiography, death notice and procedure. ... The writing in this book is comprised of each woman's courageous journey to document how they personally found the spirit from within to break from from domestic violence.' Source: Introduction
