About this listen

"Get out here, now, or I'm gonna kill you!" he hollered.

Little girls are hardwired to hold their daddies in high esteem, so it comes as a shock the first time a daughter feels the back of her daddy's hand across her face... or watches him punch and kick her mother to within an inch of her life. How could this be? Her older sisters teach her how to survive, even when he comes for her in the night. A girl learns to become invisible, to look the other way, to say nothing when a curious stranger asks if she's okay. To lie. To expect nothing, not even from relatives. To cry without tears. To pray silently.

When she is 14, and weary, a girl begins to wish she were dead. Cruel Harvest is the compelling story of how she lived instead.

It is almost impossible to imagine what Frances went through even though her descriptions are outstanding. This book is a testament to the incredible strength of the human spirit despite being abused, tortured and battered almost beyond belief and certainly very far beyond anyone who has not experienced something similar can begin to imagine. You come out feeling nothing but awe and wonder at what a human being can endure and how they can shine beyond such sorrow and pain.

A triumph of the human spirit
