Inside the house Barbara too was in crisis, the recipient of her husband¿s anger and rage. As time passes and the Oak weakens, Barbara can no longer stay strong as she deals with her own demons. Based on a true story, this woman takes us inside her emotionally charged existence. Letting us feel the anguish of domestic abuse, divorce, attempted suicide, recovery, incarceration in a mental institution and eventual clarity of her dysfunctional mental state. This book is a must-read for anyone going through domestic abuse or depression or family members who are trying to make sense out of the situation.
