A proposito di questo titolo

An innocent young woman, violently attacked in her family home by a total stranger and left to die. Beaten repeatedly and soaked with petrol as her home burned, Lauren Huxley's life was hanging by a thread. Lauren's battle to survive caused an outpouring of public love and support. The crime was so horrific, so senseless, anyone who read about the attack couldn't help thinking: how could I bear someone I loved to go through this? For her father Patrick, mother Christine and sister Simone it was like being plunged into hell. Doctors gave Lauren only a five per cent chance of survival. Her injuries were among the worst they had ever seen, so horrific that she was barely recognisable. But those insurmountable odds counted for little against the Huxley family's determination, courage and love. Together, they started to rebuild their shattered lives... and Lauren started coming back. This is their extraordinary story.©2009 Lisa Davies and Lauren Huxley.

Recensioni editoriali

Severely beaten, doused with gasoline and left for dead in her burning home by a vicious intruder, Lauren Huxley’s doctors gave little her little no chance of surviving her harrowing ordeal, but, as documented in Lisa Davies’ moving True Colors, with the undying support of her family, she overcame the odds and lived to tell her tale.

Whether recounting Laura’s slow, painstaking road to recovery or depicting the visceral outrage of her grief-stricken mother, skilled narrator Julie Nihill imbues this heartbreaking but ultimately inspirational true story with a stirring poignancy.

Recensioni della critica

"If there's one thing I've learned it's that the pleasure in life is doing what other people say you can't." (Lauren Huxley)

"In late 2005, Lauren Huxley, a young Australian woman, was savagely attacked in her own home by a complete stranger and left to die. This is the story of Lauren's miraculous recovery from her coma, the hunt for her attacker, and the Huxley family's stressful journey through all of this. Narrator Julie Nihill's steady, calm narration is appropriate, as the events described are horrifying enough to listen to without dramatic embellishment. She does shade her voice to distinguish the different characters but in an understated way that makes the listener empathize with Lauren and her family members all the more. Even listeners who might initially feel uncomfortable picking up such a book may appreciate this audio production." (AudioFile Magazine)
