TRAPPED IN A BUBBLE: The Shocking True Story of Child Abuse and its Legacy (Child Abuse True Stories) (English Edition) [Kindle-editie] beoordelingen het boek quotes

Jack had escaped once. From that house. That street. That place. And from his parents. As a troubled teenager, struggling with his sexuality after years of verbal, mental and physical abuse, he left home and moved on. He put together a new life and became a different person, while keeping hidden from everyone the sporadic dark periods that could wipe out days at a time. But years later, in the aftermath of a violent attack, he begins to unravel, which leads to a move abroad followed by a return to his childhood home. Moving back into that claustrophobic house full of unwanted memories - with his manipulative, controlling mother and her bizarre, obsessive behaviour, and too many reminders of his abusive father - wasn't supposed to be for long, but as the past catches up with him, his mental state deteriorates and he finds himself trapped once again in the last place he ever wanted to be.
