To the Survivors

To the Survivors is a deeply-moving, empowering, and brutally honest book about one man’s journey as a rape crisis counselor combined with true stories of sexual violence shared by real survivors in their own words. Gently and beautifully constructed, To the Survivors is moving, tender, sharp, and piercingly true all at once. The reader will encounter uncensored written stories, poems, and interviews shared by women, men, and one transgendered person who have been raped and sexually assaulted. The impact of this work is far reaching – it is multi-cultural, multi-generational, and fully expansive in its ability to reach people’s hearts and minds around this critical human issue. Robert Uttaro believes anyone can benefit from the words in these pages; rape survivor or not.

Written for the millions of people affected by sexual trauma, To the Survivors is a compassionate guide through a painful subject with a focus on true justice, hope and forgiveness. It reveals dark truths and hidden injustices to the reader while simultaneously offering inspiring messages.

To the Survivors is a timeless resource for a world that struggles with the repercussions of sexual violence.
