As Brison observes in this bravely written account, trauma disrupts memory, severs past from present, and incapacitates the ability to envision a future. Yet the act of bearing witness, sheargues, facilitates recovery by integrating the experience into the survivor's life's story.In 1990 Susan Brison was attacked, severely beaten, sexually assaulted, and left for dead. She survived but her world was destroyed. This text is both her personal narrative of recovery and a philosophical exploration of trauma and the undoing and remaking of self in the aftermath of violence.
