Persoonlijk relaas van de Amerikaanse auteur, die als kind werd mishandeld, maar die door zijn doorzettingsvermogen en zijn geloof in God zijn trauma's wist te overwinnen.

Même aux heures les plus noires, j'avais malgré tout le sentiment diffus d'être l'artisan de mon sort, et je m'étais fait le serment, si j'en sortais vivant, de tout mettre en oeuvre pour devenir un homme bien.
