Beaten but unbowed : walking from the nightmare of abuse / Karen Braysher.

"Born as a 'replacement' for her thalidomide-stricken sister, Karen Braysher was raised in aggressive, unsafe home, herself suffering from undiagnosed dyslexia and bipolar. Karen's true and inspiring story shows her incredible strength, sisterly love, warmth and humour in the face of discrimination, physical and emotional abuse, homophobia and misunderstanding."--back cover.
