A fractured account of family abuse, secrets, and the cost of pursuing the truth.In Belén López Peiró's Why Did You Come Back Every Summer, family means home and safety, but also pain and betrayal. Her uncle, a police commissioner, sexually abuses her. His wife and daughter shelter, then reject her. Her mother is his sister. And no one wants to believe her.This is a true story of intimate sexual violence. Told in multiple voices, and through real police reports and interviews, it explores the demands and the cost of ensuring the truth is heard. Most important is the shifting, slipping loyalties among loved ones. What do you owe to your family? What do they owe you? How far will you go to get yourself back?But now it's time to give yourself some closure and start to tell yourself another story. The story of your life, which doesn't end here. This is just the beginning.
