Denial: A Memoir

In this powerful memoir, a terrorism expert and assault survivor shares a clear-eyed, elucidating study of the profound reverberations of trauma” (Publishers Weekly, starred review).

One of the world’s foremost experts on terrorism and post-traumatic stress disorder, Jessica Stern knows what it is to live through horror. In this brave and astonishingly frank examination of her own unsolved rape at the age of fifteen, she investigates how the rape and its aftermath came to shape her future and her work.

The author of the New York Times Notable Book Terror in the Name of God, Stern brilliantly explores the nature of evil in an extraordinary volume that Louise Richardson, author of What Terrorists Want, calls, “Memorable, powerful and deeply courageous…a riveting read.”

“Denial is one of the most important books I have read in a decade. . . . Brave, life-changing, and gripping as a thriller. . . . A tour de force.” —Naomi Wolf
