From Rags to Rags

From Rags To Rags is Tina Morrison's true story of wasted childhood back in Poland during 60's and 70's. It portrays a painful journey through neglect, despair, horrors of domestic violence and poverty inflicted by alcohol abuse. Written in her own words, Tina describes daily shame and humiliation caused by her drunken father and how she tried to cope when things couldn't get any worse. Terrorized by her father's tyrannical ways at home she's often hungry and her disabled mother is reduced to beg for food around the neighbourhood... But however bad things could be, Tina's story is also sparkled with doses of humour which makes an interesting and compelling reading, giving the reader a welcoming break from the gloomy horror of domestic abuse portrayed in this book.
This is the first of two books, and Tina's story continues in From Rags to Rags, and then it got worse... It took much soul searching and twelve years to complete both books.
