A Way With Words

Poems, stories and artwork from women who have lived with and left abusers.

The request for this book came from women living in Glasgow Women’s Aid refuges. The women wished to document their stories, read other women’s stories and be inspired on their journey of recovery from domestic abuse. Poems, stories and artwork commemorate their struggle and sorrow, celebrate their strengths and their new found freedom, give expression to the healing powers of creativity and it is hoped, voice to those still suffering in silence.
