Writing As A Way Of Healing

How Telling Our Stories Transforms Our Lives

BY LOUISE DESALVO

Brief Description:
"How writing can be used to recover from trauma and as a tool for personal growth: encouragement and suggestions from a professor of literature and creative writing. DeSalvo (Hunter Coll.) is working here from her own experience: a tumultuous childhood, the loss of her mother and sister in adulthood, and severe health problems left her in turmoil that began to calm when she wrote about her experiences...Years of seeing her students find similar succor has further convinced her of the special value writing holds as a therapeutic tool." - Kirkus Reviews
