Media Reviews
The voices Wendy Ann Wood has gathered are sorrowful, yet uplifting: they extend the language of love with messages of recovery. The book's straight-forward, instructive passages should be helpful to many victims in their struggle to become survivors and advocates. Triumph Over Darkness is empowered by its insistence on the triumph of simple human dignity. -- Jason Barry, author of Lead Us Not into Temptation: Catholic Priests and the Sexual Abuse of Children
