Peggy, I agree. Speaking with such people is often a quiet discovery of experiences you usually only read about!

Thank you for an inspiring review - and for your honesty about how hard it is to read some material. Many times I have had to check out a book two or three times in order to have the strength to finish it because the information was so upsetting even though important.

Thank you. I often think I can't take looking at brutality . Your post gives me encouragement.

Margaret, let's just say we can try be aware of brutality in the real world, and then speak out against it when we have the chance. -- Well, that's hard, too!
