Fragments: A Post-Traumatic Paradigm

In this compilation of memoir, poetry, and creative non-fiction, K.D. Roche (personal pronouns: they/them/theirs) answers the questions often posed to survivors of violence. They offer a glimpse into the intricate way that a child's mind processes traumatic experiences--in a sensory and non-linear fashion. In order to survive a parent's addiction, bouncing from one house to the next, and being sex trafficked, K.D. learns to separate their mind from their body, disconnecting thoughts, memories, and even their very identity. This book gathers fragments of a traumatic childhood and pieces them together in a way that helps us understand that the truth is not in the details, but in the telling of one's own story.--Page [4] of cover.
