| 520 | |a Drawing on her own experience as one of society's abandoned children, Louise tells how she emerged from the cruel, unjust system, not only to survive, but to flourish. After years of jumping from one fleeting, often abusive home to the next, Louise met a counselor who tried unsuccessfully to adopt her. As Louise endured solitary confinement, overmedication, and the actions of adults who seem hell-bent on convincing her that she deserved nothing, she remained determined to achieve her dream of a higher education. She started writing quite literally a new future for herself. This is her memoir of efforts to find her place in the world, people to love, and people to love her back. -- adapted from front flap. | ||
