I believe it be good for people to be aware that these things take place in this book. I do not wish for it to hold them back from reading. The author did a wonderful job of conveying his experiences without painting graphic pictures.fuzzyhebrew's review against another edition

The other part of this story which resonated with me was the healing relationship with Ester. This woman spends her days working to help people with violent behaviors overcome immense trauma. I cannot imagine the emotional toll that would take.
I would highly recommend this book if you are willing to read about this subject matter. Just read it on paper.
