Produktbeschreibung
Dando voz a mi silencio - Mi lucha por el respeto entre Venezuela y Siria en una autobiografía desgarradora que describe vívidamente como en su niñez Montaha Hidefi fue expuesta al abuso físico y la manipulación mental a manos de su propia madre, y tuvo que luchar contra el prejuicio social y el sentido de pertenencia en su país de nacimiento, Venezuela. También narra como en su juventud, la autora tuvo que enfrentar la intimidación, el rechazo social, la violencia, e incluso intentos de asesinato mientras atravesaba un choque cultural en el país de sus padres, Siria. Esta es una conmovedora historia de autodeterminación, resiliencia y crecimiento personal de una joven que se negó a identificarse con el abuso y transformó su vida para lograr éxito en más de un nivel. A fuerza de pura intrepidez, ella completó una educación superior y ascendió al nivel de ejecutiva con cargos a nivel mundial. El dolor de la autora es profundamente palpable al recordar las emociones de una infancia destrozada por la desigualdad, y de décadas de manoseos y agresiones, e incluso intentos de asesinato. Al compartir su lucha para normalizar su salud mental y los demonios internos que resultaron en fobias y rebeldías para romper patrones sociales, la autora proporciona inspiración y motivación para ayudar al lector a superar sus propios obstáculos y construir la vida que desea. Dando voz a mi silencio - Mi lucha por el respeto entre Venezuela y Siria es la versión original en español de Giving Voice to My Silence - My Struggle for Respect from Venezuela to Syria. Giving Voice to My Silence - My Struggle for Respect from Venezuela to Syria is a truthful memoir, vividly describing Montaha Hidefi's contrasting childhood struggle with mental manipulation and physical abuse at the hands of her own mother, social prejudice, and the sense of belonging in her country of birth, Venezuela, with her youthful battle with intimidation, social rejection, and violence while getting through with cultural shock in the country of her parents, Syria. This is an inspiring story of self-determination, resilience and growth of a young woman who refused to identify with the abuse and transformed her life to achieving success on more than one level. Through sheer willpower, she pursued higher education and rose to the level of global executive. Battling with mental health and seeking to be respected as a female and human being, the author's pain is profoundly palpable as she recalls the emotional rollercoaster of a childhood shattered by inequality, and of decades of unwelcome advances, groping and assault, and even attempted murder. By sharing her struggle to coping with mental health and grappling with internal demons that resulted in phobias and rebellion to break social patterns, the author inspires and motivates the reader to overcome their own obstacles and build the life they desire. Giving Voice to My Silence - My Struggle for Respect from Venezuela to Syria is a new edition of Montaha Hidefi's Groping for Truth - My Uphill Struggle for Respect, published in 2018. Along with a new title, this second edition includes updated and new information based on a recently found journal kept by the author during professional therapy in 1994. It also includes a new chapter to reflect current times and coping mechanisms following the death of both her parents.
