Home is the place we can't wait to escape when we're young, then forever after long to return. But there's no going back, especially when home was a place of unhappiness, heartbreak, or abuse. Come Home, Child is a memoir of healing from childhood trauma through therapy, poetry, music, and laughter. It is the story of the author's struggle to recover his authentic identity. He revisits the dark and turbulent times of his early life, wrestling with the pain of alienation, disconnection, emotional coldness, and even sexual violation. It is the story of his lifelong journey to find a place in the world that belongs to him, and to which he belongs, a path of healing that is ultimately a coming home to oneself. Whether or not you share similar traumatic experiences, you will gain insight into the process of healing that counseling and therapy can bring, and learn that no matter the extent of trauma, you can find a path toward a satisfying and rewarding life. The book is richly illustrated with the author's drawings and photographs, depicting a small boy and his companion teddy bear, and the adventures they encounter on the difficult but rewarding path to healing the soul. Black and White, 252 pages.
