Voices Of The Survivors
Patricia Easteal

I hope with the women who break their silence and contribute to this survey some very much needed changes will take place. God knows we need them.This book is the result of a nationwide survey of 2300 letters from women and 97 from men about rape and sexual abuse. Patricia Easteal analysed the materials primarily from women who have experienced abuse from husbands, estranged husbands, relatives, dates, bosses, priests, acquaintances and strangers.

Anne Thacker, Women’s Studies International Forum

‘Inside are stories of such pain that it is an act of will to read them.’

Rachel Buchanan, The Age

'Voices of the Survivors is a repository of women’s courage to end the isolation and secrecy of sexual assault.’
