About This Item
Alexander, NC: Alexander Books, 2002-11-01. Trade Paperback. Very Good. 9x6x0. Signed. No Stock Photos! We photograph every item. light edge wear; Signed & Inscribed on the title page by the author. Although Hallie's Story is presented as fiction, that doesn't mean it isn't true-at least in the broadest sense. Hallie is a battered woman, a victim of severe abuse, who lives her life as if she is two different women: one, the wife of a professional man with everything that anyone could wish for; the other, a frightened, submissive, obedient wife who knows that, at any moment, her domineering husband could end her life and claim that she committed suicide. No one would doubt such a well-known family man and pillar of the community. She is a woman trapped with no place to run and no one to turn to. Hallie's Story is a fictionalized narrative of domestic violence blended with professional commentary and advice. Targeted to the victims of abuse, as well as mental health, medical, and other professionals, this book puts an authentic face on the cycle of abuse. Through scenes designed to read much like a novel, readers follow Hallie and her husband Roger through the early stages of their relationship to the point at which Hallie finally gathers the strength to leave her abuser and begin a new life alone with her child.
