Wholly Unraveled

A Memoir

De: Keele Burgin

Narrado por: Keele Burgin

Sometimes all that it takes to start over is the courage to say you will.

In Kathleen’s home, red jeans were a sin. Parties were punishable with violence. Fear was part of the daily norm. Growing up in a Catholic cult, under the unforgiving eye of her abusive father, Kathleen knew from an early age that if she were to survive, she’d have to do it on her own.

But when the time came to escape, she found herself in a damaging spiral of self-destruction. At rock bottom, and with nowhere to go, Kathleen stepped off a bus in the last place she ever thought she’d find peace: a remote and very Catholic community. Spending a year in almost complete silence, Kathleen feared this experience would prove to be just another step in her unraveling. Instead, with her demons quieted, she emerged with a fresh understanding of self, an empowering new purpose, and a sense of worthiness that she would never let be challenged again.

Wholly Unraveled is Keele Burgin’s gripping and inspiring journey of self-discovery and of finally finding her voice against nearly insurmountable odds.

“Keele Burgin is a living, breathing example of the triumph of the human spirit. The story of how she overcame the extreme abuse of her childhood is nothing short of breathtaking. Burgin shows us that light can always be found in darkness and that anything can be transformed by love.” (Jennifer Read Hawthorne, New York Times best-selling author)

“I was hooked by this story. Burgin’s writing is so vivid, giving life to scenes with a minimum of words. Brilliant.” (Dr. Jane Goodall)

AMAZING

One if the most riveting, powerful books I have ever read!! It makes you look into own your life and look at things in a different way.

Sometimes painful

If you have had a childhood that was what some see as normal then this story might not be for you.
Thank God my life was not as tragic as hers and I did not suffer physical abuse I nearly didn’t survive the sexual abuses.
What an incredible woman this author is. I’m glad she found her way and learned to love herself. Great book.

Could not stop listening...

This memoir was so delicately written so as not to offend and so honest that I cried and laughed along with the author. I could feel her pain and heartache. I could not stop listening to this audio book. It is a treasure.
