Running from Paradise

Meer over het boek

Alicia endures a traumatic childhood of abuse and adversity that drives her to run away and spiral into addiction as a teen. At 16, she boards a plane to an unfamiliar place, where even more hardship awaits. There, she faces a painfully heartbreaking experience that pushes her pain deeper inside in order to survive. For years, Alicia suppresses the memories of her devastating past. But in her early thirties, the haunting trauma resurfaces with such vivid clarity that she can no longer distinguish reality. After losing herself, Alicia must find the hope to carry on even during her darkest hour. This is a resilient woman's powerful story of wrestling with childhood demons and the struggle to overcome trauma.
