I Will Not Break by Judith Mattison
As a child she had to forget in order to survive. As an adult she had to remember in order to be free.
Judith Mattison had a conventional 1940s Midwestern childhood, followed by college, marriage, and children. Still, throughout her life, she was haunted by a mysterious terror of deer head hunting trophies. With the help of a therapist, she began to recover memories of severe abuse at the hands of her father.
Unearthing her repressed past, she learned that forgetting was how she coped as a child. Remembering as an adult broke her apart--and then put her together again. In the process she struggled to overcome shame and fear, to embrace anger, and to claim her truth.
Mattison, Judith: - Judith Mattison is the author of fourteen previous books, including I'm Worried About Your Drinking and Divorce: The Pain and the Healing, and the first woman to be pastor of the largest Lutheran church in the United States.
