Publisher Description
John grew up in poverty in Limerick, Ireland, in the 1960s. Fatherless, and with a family in chaos, John fell prey to the predatory clutches of a neighbour, setting off a cycle of sexual abuse that eventually led to being sold as a teenage prostitute.
Against all odds, John put himself through college and became a lawyer. But there was no escaping his past. One day, a man arrived in desperate need of representation and failed to recognise John as the boy he'd once abused. Now John had a choice to make...
Nobody Heard Me Cry is both a devastating expose of a stolen childhood and an unforgettable story of survival. Most of all, it is a heartfelt plea to hear the cries of other children in need.
Customer Reviews
Nobody Heard Me Cry
A very very powerful book. A real eye opener in a world too many experience and too few know about. A deep story of pain, solitude, but also of resilience, courage amd determination to rise above the ashes. If this doesn’t put life into perspective, what can ?
