Aprašymas

precedent can be rewritten, and you never had to do it alone.

Grounded in a recent legal case that crosses borders, Precedence offers an intimate and stunningly poised insight into a young woman's experience leaving home and facing her father in a Canadian courtroom. Pujita Verma's tender, hopeful voice exposes the shortcomings of the international legal infrastructure in providing recourse to survivors of childhood sexual abuse, while honoring the generations of women who have protected and taught her, and whose sacrifices ultimately put her in the position to speak out publicly. What precedents, Verma asks - legal, personal, cultural - do we rewrite for ourselves and others each time we act? What does it look like to know romantic love, and come of age, after coming forward?
