Forty years ago, there were no role models for Dawn, who, in early childhood, knew that something was really not right about her body. She had no idea what it was. Perhaps, her family also sensed something about this as well because they treated her like an outsider, and she suffered unthinkable abuse because of it. She had no name for what she was feeling and no one to turn to. If her teenaged suicide plan had been realized, or had she not had the compassion of a few key people along the way, there would be no triumph to be shared in this audiobook.

David W. Powell enlisted for a tour of duty in April 1966 with the US Marines after receiving an imminent draft notice. Believing he would be able to leverage his existing skills as a computer programmer, he never thought all they would see on his resume was his Karate expertise.

David's journey from naive civilian to battle-hardened combat veteran shows us all how fragile our humanity really is.

En debatbog, hvori forfatter Jannie Helle fremstiller den provokerende tese, at kvinden har bevæget sig væk fra sin sande kvindelighed, som består i følsomhed, indre ro og evnen til at drage omsorg for andre.

Hun var især kendt som redaktør af brevkasser i flere magasiner samt fra tv-programmet Eleva2ren.
