A courageous woman’s rallying call for ‘shame to change sides’. For the very first time, Gisèle Pelicot tells her story.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e'An emblem of resilience for women everywhere' VOGUE'The bravest woman in the world' DAILY MIRROROne November day, Gisèle Pelicot was called to a local police station and life as she knew it ended. Her husband of fifty years had been caught by a supermarket guard filming up women’s skirts. But on his computer was shattering evidence: for nearly a decade, he had been secretly drugging and raping her and inviting dozens of strangers into their home to abuse her.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFour years later, he and fifty other men were put on trial and Gisèle’s courage in waiving her right to anonymity made global headlines. ‘Shame must change sides,’ she declared, giving voice and hope to millions. Her words became a rallying cry and her decision marked a turning point in public feeling about sexual violence.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFor the first time, and with unwavering honesty and grace, she describes a difficult childhood, first love, her career and motherhood. It is a life in determined search of happiness, both before and after her devastating discovery. She is an ordinary person who faces extraordinary catastrophe, whose example changes the world.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eUltimately, Gisèle Pelicot emerges with a renewed passion and reverence for living, and for love. A Hymn to Life is an unforgettable testament and promise: that victims have no reason to feel ashamed; that even after unimaginable betrayal we can go on; and that colour will always return to life.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Griffin Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56560367632757,"sku":"9781847928962","price":22.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0379\/1365\/7388\/files\/9781847928962.jpg?v=1767521792","url":"https:\/\/www.griffinbooksonline.co.uk\/products\/9781847928962","provider":"Griffin Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
