Produktbeschreibung

Wolf is a study in dysfunction, recovery, and relationships that pulls no punches as it presents a powerful example of how love can overcome trauma.

- Midwest Book Review

Embark on a powerful journey into the resilient spirit of a PTSD survivor. This very personal memoir invites you into the character's lives and inspires you with relentless acts of love.

Meet Carter, whose tumultuous upbringing in the clutches of an alcoholic, drug-addicted mother left him desperate to escape the grip of loneliness, shame, and anger. He was a heartbroken child with a mother who without apology broke promises and forced him and his sisters to be her constant caregiver and perform unfathomable tasks. Carter writes, "She doesn't look at me, she never does."

This story shows the profound effects of maternal neglect and carefully illustrates how smaller repetitive traumas can embed just as deeply as a single intensely violent one. Carter left home at 15 but unknowingly continued to carry the rage and shame inside. It seeped out every chance it could, threatening his relationship with his wife, causing everything he longed for to feel out of reach.

With unwavering support from his wife and sister, Carter begins the rocky path to making peace with his past. Transitioning from a lone wolf who concealed his rage and buried his shame, he evolves into a person who understands that the only way to dismantle the power of these hidden secrets is to bring them into the light.

Whether you are a survivor, a supporter, or someone striving to live a deeply felt life, this book will inspire you to put your most authentic foot forward.
