Description

The project uses the methodology of content analysis to examine two autobiographies: "The Doghouse Angel: From The Darkness of Abuse to the Light of Healing" by Kimberly A. Steward and "Heal and Forgive" by Nancy Richards. Both autobiographies reflect women's recovery process. It is important to examine the recovery process of abuse to understand how people can help others who have survived abuse without causing more harm. Domestic violence has become an enormous issue. It is important for society to help other women not feel they are to blame for the abuse.
