The Grimmest of Fairy Tales - Paperback
by Tammy Casselson (Author), Anastasia Sagris-Desmond (Author)
The Grimmest of Fairy Tales, a collaboration between Tammy Casselson and Anastasia Sagris-Desmond, combines lived experience and professional voices to elevate, amplify and legitimise Family Violence survivors' experience (in particular coercive control) so that it is seen and heard.Tammy shares a harrowing, and sadly too familiar, story of a promised fairy tale life that turned into a complete nightmare. This book offers hope, healing and resources for Family and Domestic Violence Survivors. It is a reminder that recovery is possible, even though the path isn't always linear.This lived experience exposes the manipulative tactics of abusers, including coercive control (financial, emotional, legal, systems, religious) and post-separation abuse, emphasising that the perpetrator alone is responsible for their choices. It highlights red flags and supports the reader to recognise them, offer true allyship, and understand the devastating impact of secondary trauma when survivors are not heard or believed.Intimate Partner Violence affects everyone - regardless of background, religion, or community. We all have a role to play in ending it. It's time to shatter the silence and the shame.Made with care and unconditionally loved by our customers, this signature bestseller exceeds all expectations.
