Nightingale Songs: Survival Stories from Domestic Violence
Nightingale Songs: Survival Stories from Domestic Violence

Survivors' raw narratives inspire hope and awareness.

'Nightingale Songs' isn't just a book; it's a chorus of strength and resilience echoing from its pages. As you delve into the firsthand accounts of those who've endured and fought against domestic violence, you'll find a deep well of empathy and understanding. It's an eye-opener that draws you into the harsh realities many face, serving both as an emotional catharsis for survivors and an enlightening journey for those fortunate enough to have never walked in such shoes.

Note: While we do our best to ensure the accuracy of cover images, ISBNs may at times be reused for different editions of the same title which may hence appear as a different cover.

Description

In Nightingale Songs, survivors of domestic violence share their personal stories and professionals talk about their involvement in this challenging field and what their experiences have taught them. This book provides useful information for those considering working in the field of domestic violence (DV), especially the importance of self-care, and will speak to anyone whose life has been personally touched by domestic violence. Private stories are revealed for the purpose of raising public awareness about violence in the home. Kendra presents DV as a social issue, needing to be understood and addressed at the community level. The diversity of stories reflect Singaporean society, illustrating that this social problem is not limited to one class or ethnic group but crosses all boundaries of race, religion, education and socio-economic background.
