Editor's Note:
Smiling on the Outside: Secrets, Sex, Shame and the Search for Self-Love is a story of resilience in the face of adversity and the power of self-love. Although this is one woman’s intimate tale of rape, domestic violence, codependency, sexual shame and self-doubt, readers will likely recognize themselves in her familiar plight given the challenges females face in our you-asked-for-it society. More, they will identify with the impulse to stuff trauma into a neat box in order to look as if the damage never occurred. It’s a true story and reads like a novel. From beach bags to book bags, this book belongs on top of the reading list for both the woman who is feeling alone, a little crazy, and gripped with shame as well as students of academic programs in social psychology, interpersonal relationships, human sexuality and women’s studies.
