[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is an older book but I read it this year and recommend it. It’s called Notes on a Silencing by Lacy Chabert about her experiences at St. Paul’s School after being sexually assaulted. Very eye-opening and well-written. [/quote] I read that book last year and I still think of it frequently. I read that her manuscript was rejected many times as just another rape story. So she had to think about how to reframe the entire thing. It really sets a high standard for reflective memoir.[/quote] I agree. I have read a lot of memoirs and at this point, I am underwhelmed by most, but this was one of the best I've read. She is a good writer and it was like a slow burn. I thought it was devastating. I found it hard to believe how the school reacted, but believed it all.[/quote]
