Praise for Invisible Chains
“I wish I’d had this book in my youth, when I was the victim of coercion that whittled away at my self-esteem. This book should be in every women’s center, police station, and therapist’s office. It cuts through the jargon, gets to the heart of the matter, and provides tools of liberation.”
—Magdalena Gómez, author of Shameless Woman
