“Dad, there are things about my childhood I’d like to know.”

“I don’t want to talk about it. It would only hurt your mother.”

“But Dad, you’re the only one who can tell me.”

“I don’t want to talk about it. It would only hurt your mother.”

Secrets. Lies. Silences. Stories told by parents and families to protect themselves. A father who defends his wife at the expense of his daughter’s health and welfare. A mother, shielded by her husband, who perpetuates murderous acts of violence on the daughter, and keeps secret her husband’s sexual “play” with the young girl.

And yet . . . Nancy King, determined to learn the truth of her childhood and the heartbreaking effects it has had on her adult life, uncovers the secrets. Sees through the lies. Breaks the silence. 

Empowered by the stories she told herself as a child, she learns to use stories as part of her work as a university professor teaching theater, drama, world literature, and creative expression. Gradually, with the help of bodywork and therapy, she finds her voice. Says no to abuse and abusers. Reclaims her self and life. Writes a memoir.

She climbs mountains. Weaves tapestries. Writes books. Makes friends. Creates a meaningful life.

This is her story.
