J. E. Ketchel's foray into the world of the unconscious continues in Place of No Pity, Volume 4 of the Recapitulation Diaries.
How many survivors of sexual abuse could find anything positive in their experience? As Ms. Ketchel contemplates in Place of No Pity: "Without my consent, sexual abuse was imposed on me and determined the kind of life I would lead. I have been a sexually abused person my entire life; I see that now. I understand that it has defined and controlled me on so many levels, but that it has also gotten me where I am now. Sexual abuse has provided the strong backbone of my existence too, so I must respect it rather than hate it. I must extricate from it the inherent good strengths and advantages that such a life afforded me and integrate them into who I am becoming, for though I suffered greatly I invariably gained a great deal as well." With honesty, intelligence, and a thoroughly engaging manner she tells us her story, joining the ranks of the best diarists, the most daring explorers of the unconscious, and the vast legions of travelers into the unknown. Without attachment or self-importance she arrives on the verge of new life having discovered that a path of compassion and love is the only path worth pursuing. As her story unfolds, the reader is offered a rare and intimate glimpse into the evolution of a human being willing to go the distance to fully heal from the deepest of traumas. Please Note: The first two volumes, where the author takes you into the darkness of her emerging memories, may be difficult to read, as mentioned in reviews of the books. But these are books about a healing journey so stick with them, and with the author, as she faces traumatic memories, releases them from her body and finds that there is so much more to life than meets the eye.Author Biography
