The Life of a Rose is a journey about the author delving into issues of physical, mental, emotional, and sexual abuses beginning in childhood and ending at the point where she finds herself at a rebirth. Conditioned to these abuses early in life, the author finds herself dealing with the very same issues in a relationship with the man she loves and chooses to marry. Leaving the life of rural America, the author finds herself in big cities and the foreign country of Iran. She takes you along with her through three sets of poetry as she processes her past life and learns the art of taking responsibility of her own life, taking her own power. The author conquers her fears and in doing so takes control of her life. As she recognizes she is in control, her ability to be in charge of her own life increases.

Very Helpful in the healing process of abuse for both sexes.,
By A Customer
This review is from: The Life of a Rose (Paperback)
I was very lucky to have been able to read this book before the release date. You will find this book very helpful in the healing process of physical, mental, sexual and emotional abuses that many have suffered, both women and men alike. From childhood, to what this American woman a registered nurse, endured when she was in Iran during the "Hostage Crisis", and the Iranian - Iraqi War. It has been a great help to me and my family.

The Life of a Rose,
By Scott Hammond (Hornell, NY USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Life of a Rose (Paperback)
This book was given to me by a friend. After skimming it, I ran across the first two poems and was drawn in. I had been abused as a child, but never acknowledged the abuse as a part of me in my current living situation. After reading this book, I've decided its time to get a handle my past.

A healing experience,

This review is from: The Life of a Rose (Paperback)
Reading Catherine's life story was a healing experience for me. Her book has inspired me towards more personal growth. Some of her circumstances and changes that she shares mirrored a few of my own stories. While reading her words, I found that I was able to process more of my mixed feelings about my own past situations. I admire her courage to write down the truth. I enthusically recommend "The Life of a Rose" to anyone embracing personal change.
