"Finding Our Way Home : Women's Accounts of Being Sent to Boarding School shares the personal stories of sixteen women, all whom were sent away to board at any early age. Their accounts delve into the depths of long suppressed emotions and feelings, and the lifelong impact that the early separation from their families has had. Much attention has been lavished on the impact of so-called 'boarding school syndrome' on male borders, but less so their female counterparts. This book is the first to explore the experience from a purely female perspective, and offers an intriguing insight into the world of boarding schools and the upbringing of girls born in the mid-to late 20th century. Finding Our Way Home is a book for everyone who ever attended boarding school, as well as psychotherapists and counsellors working with boarding school survivors"--Provided by publisher. |
