Often the men who are closest to rape survivors—intimate partners, friends, and family members—are simply unprepared to offer the right assistance. The wrong word or action may trigger an unexpected reaction

You will require determination, commitment, and a willingness to listen to the audiobook as it was intended, as a dialogue with yourself. They say change is not easy, but change is instantaneous: it is the resistance to the change that takes time. This audiobook is not about self improvement, although that is one of the side effects.

Chi accetterebbe mai di ospitare per diciotto anni nel giardino di casa propria una anziana barbona e il furgone debordante di rifiuti che ne costituisce il domicilio? Oltretutto Miss Shepherd non è una vecchina che susciti tenerezza: è grande e grossa, scontrosa, bislacca, poco incline alla gratitudine. Porta una sottana fatta di stracci per la polvere, occhiali da sole verdi e, a mo’ di cappello, un cestino di paglia ottagonale. Si fa scarrozzare per la città su una sedia a rotelle ed emana un insopportabile fetore. Chi mai accetterebbe una così perturbante prossimità?

Belisarius and Antonina were titans in the Roman world some 1,500 years ago. Belisarius was the most well-known general of his age, victor over the Persians, conqueror of the Vandals and the Goths, and as if this were not enough, wealthy beyond imagination.

This unadulterated power and wealth did not mean that Belisarius and Antonina were universally successful in all that they undertook.
