Omtale fra Den Norske Bokdatabasen

Dave Pelzer forteller om hvordan han oppdager at han kan vende skam til stolthet, og avvisning til aksept. Hvordan han finner seg selv og blir en mann som er fri, etter morens overgrep og mishandling gjennom oppveksten. Dette er forfatterens tredje bok om sin egen oppvekst.

Omtale fra forlaget

'All those years you tried your best to break me, and I'm still here. I don't blame others for my problems. I stand on my own. And one day you'll see, I'm going to make something of myself.'
These words were eighteen-year-old Dave Pelzer's declaration of independence to his mother, a woman who had abused him with shocking brutality. He lived to tell his courageous story, but his life remained a continued struggle. Dave felt rootless and awkward, an outcast haunted by memories of his years as the bruised, cowering 'It' locked in his mother's basement.
Dave's dramatic reunion with his dying father and the shocking confrontation with his mother led to his ultimate calling: mentor to others struggling with personal hardships. From a difficult marriage to the birth of his son, from an unfulfilling career to an enduring friendship, Dave was finally able to break the chains of his past, learning to trust, to love, and to live.
