2.0 out of 5 stars
Historical ONLY...outdated information,
By Javanne (Maple Valley, WA USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Conspiracy of Silence: The Trauma of Incest (Paperback)
Originally published in 1978, this book provides a historical understanding of the beginning of recognition of incest as a real problem within society. Written from a feminist perspective, it combines information within the framework of the feminist movement. In today's context, the material it covers generates anger at how little was understood about this issue in that era. The book incorporates interviews from victims, fathers, and mothers which ring true, but the author's interpretation of those words may bring anger and disbelief. We know now that incest is not solely attributable to living in a patriarchal society and that offenders are not easily rehabilitated. If you want to understand how much progress we have made, this book provides that perspective. Be warned that it looks at ALL the issues through a highly feminist viewpoint.
