Gift of Lament is one woman’s raw and powerful story of surviving the horrors of intimate partner violence. Through evocative poetry and poignant journal entries, Sherrie Winstanley explores the depths of her harrowing abusive relationship with an ex-husband and how she found the strength to eventually leave him and start a new life with her children. Her openness and courage invite the reader to see, name, and feel the brokenness in domestic abusive relationships and understand the depth that trauma victims face. Those who have lived with abuse, or still do, will relate to the rollercoaster emotions she exposes and be inspired to realize they do not need to feel isolated or hopeless. It is never too late to take decisive action to free your soul and spirit, as she did, and reclaim your authentic self and heal.
