A riveting memoir of survival, self-discovery, and forgiveness from the author of the groundbreaking, award-winning No Visible Bruises.Rachel Louise Snyder was eight years old when her mother died, and her distraught father thrust the family into an evangelical, cult-like existence halfway across the country. Furiously rebellious, she was expelled from school and home at age 16. Living out of her car and relying on strangers, Rachel managed to talk her way into college and eventually travelled the globe as a journalist. Survival became her reporter's beat, and in places like India, Niger, and Cambodia, she interviewed those who had been through the unimaginable.A piercing account of Snyder's journey from teenage runaway to reporter on the global epidemic of domestic violence, Women We Buried, Women We Burned is a necessary story of family struggle, female survival, and the transformative power of resilience.'Inspirational . Snyder observes the world with both an unsparing eye and a generous spirit . Instead of getting trapped in the familiar impasse of either/or, Snyder thinks in terms of ands.
