1.04 x 8.6 x 5.87 Inches; 303 pages; David Ray's soul search, recounted in this powerful illustrated memoir, is a Dickensian tale - encompassing a childhood in an orphanage, an endless series of abusive "uncles," and an adolescence haunted by a sadistic guardian, followed by a tumultuous adulthood marked equally by tragedy and triumph. With rare candor and unsentimentality, Ray - winner of the William Carlos Williams Award, the Marianne Moore Award, and the Allen Ginsberg Poetry Award - writes about finding hope within a society that first generates abusers then empowers them, ignoring victims' pleas for help and enforcing their silence.
