书名:No Visible Bruises《看不见的伤痛》
简介:斯奈德在书中详尽报道了世界卫生组织所称的“流行病式的全球健康问题”。仅在美国,半数以上被谋杀的女性是被现任或前任伴侣杀害的;家庭暴力不分阶级、宗教和种族。斯奈德揭露了普遍存在的迷思,并动情地描写了等式两边的人的生活。她没有给出简单的答案,而是提供了丰富的信息,这些信息本身就是一种希望。
In No Visible Bruises, journalist Rachel Louise Snyder frames this urgent and immersive account of the scale of domestic violence in our country around key stories that explode the common myths-that if things were bad enough, victims would just leave; that a violent person cannot become nonviolent; that shelter is an adequate response; that violence inside the home is separate from other forms of violence like mass shootings, gang violence, and sexual assault. Through the stories of victims, perpetrators, law enforcement, and reform movements from across the country, Snyder explores not only the dark corners of private violence, but also its far-reaching consequences for society, and what it will take to truly address it.
