There I go again, another piece of me chipped away. Another piece unraveled. And unlike one of my knitted pieces, this mistake would remain.Raised in a Jewish household in a coastal Connecticut town, Debbie left her childhood in the groovy ’60s and entered her teenage years during the disco era. Finding any excuse to get away from her neglectful, abusive mother, she turned to attentive boys for fun and affection.This disillusioned path led to Ivan, her first true love, and Debbie became entangled in a passionate relationship. Life was finally looking up.Until the pregnancy test came back positive. Her botched abortion and consequential rape in 1969 left Debbie Barnett feeling completely undone. Only fifteen years old, and she had hit rock bottom. Debbie’s life was unraveling before her eyes. Could she ever be made whole again? Was it too late to stitch up her mistakes? And how could she hide these secrets from her mother?Darkly comedic and downright harrowing Innocence Unraveled is a revealing memoir about a young woman whose resilience led to her survival in an unkind world.
