Who Is Mamalucy? - Paperback

by Ethel Smiter (Author)

This raw and thought-provoking short memoir centers around Ethel Smiter's life as the victim of domestic violence and her determination to survive. Domestic violence is not the victim's fault. It can happen to anyone, but no one on earth should be abused. Ethel endured a fourteen-year struggle for freedom while fostering her need to build self-esteem. Her memoir is about the life of a victim trying to find herself in the midst of tragic events, trying to create an identity that would present a positive reflection. Ethel's determination and fight to get her life back transformed her past terrible circumstances from intimidation to motivation. Her dedication to rise above the odds, even when her back was up against the wall, shows a strong character of being more than a conqueror. Her goal was the certain knowledge

that she can accomplish any possible task that comes her way. Her vision of success is for this heartfelt memoir to help others fight the same struggle and to achieve victory.
