Hard Truth: Growing out of Adversity, tells the remarkable story of
the author's journey towards healing and resilience. Having lost
her father during her childhood the author retraces her earliest
memories of growing up in the idyllic setting of Barbados. While
happy and securely attached to her parents she experienced poverty.
Her mother's decision to emigrate to England to find a new life for
her family increased the sense of loss she suffered during her most
formative years. Ince-Greenaway's explanation of her experiences of
arriving in England during the Windrush years demonstrates the
enduring impact of discrimination and racism she faced in the
community where she lived and during her education. The Christian
values she was taught by her mother during her childhood became the
backdrop for her resilience as she faced the death of her husband
who was the second Black police officer in the Metropolitan Police.
She tells of the trauma that resulted from his death. As she
grieved the loss of her husband, she had the bitter-sweet
experience of accepting the gift of his son one week after his
death. As the author transitioned to becoming a single parent, she
fought against the odds to hold onto life in the middle of a
frightening, devastating and life-threatening experience. Told
through Christian lenses, the author describes the moments that
drastically changed and shaped her life as well as the values that
sustained her through a bitter experience. Hard Truth is a dynamic
and compelling story that will inspire readers. It is a story that
is personalised, educational and inspirational no matter where
people are on their journey. It is empowering and a relatable story
of triumph over adversity, progress over brokenness and success
over misfortune. Hard Truth intensifies the importance of
self-refection and personal empowerment. It is written for
audiences everywhere and for people of all ages.
