FLORENCE, Ala., July 02, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Recent release “Love for the Unlovable” (published by LifeRich Publishing) from debuting author Edith E. (Blackwell) Forsythe is a strident narrative that tells a true story of one mother’s experiences as she endured constant abuse at the hands of a husband and father determined to leave lasting scars along a dark path of violence.
In a raw and emotional retelling, Forsythe candidly details her memories of her mother, Josephine Blackwell, an ordinary woman with an extraordinary testimony of God’s love and faithfulness. While describing the seemingly endless suffering Josephine was forced to endure at the hands of an abuser, the author discloses how her mother still managed to teach her children about love, faith and true forgiveness. Readers also get a glimpse of the three divine encounters that Josephine and her children experienced as they bore continued violence and abuse for over three decades.
“Domestic violence can happen to anyone,” Forsythe states. “People in abusive scenarios are not alone in dealing with abuse. There is hope and help out there for domestic violence victims. Don’t be a statistic, leave, if unable to reach out to someone and get help.”
The publication of “Love for the Unlovable” intends to honor one abused woman’s memory, her unconditional love for her family and unwavering faith. It also serves as a voice for others who are in the same situation. Included in the book are newspaper articles and police reports related to the domestic violence incidents as well as family photographs.
