Gemma Carey
When Gemma Carey was twelve years old, a man twice her age would sneak into her bedroom on a weekly basis and sexually assault her. When Gemma was seventeen, she took the perpetrator to court without anyone else knowing and had him placed on the child sex offenders register. When she was thirty-three, her mother died of cancer. For twenty years, her mother had known about this man. But why had she not acted to protect her daughter? Could the genesis of this betrayal be found in her own family history?
No Matter Our Wreckage is the story of past and present colliding. It seeks to capture the complexity of forces that lead to abuse; to understand the intertwined narratives of mothers and daughters and how trauma becomes encoded in our DNA through generations. It explores grooming and the intricacies of consent, and how as a society we have not yet figured out how to deal with these types of crimes or the people who commit them.
No Matter Our Wreckage is a powerful, poetic and unflinching memoir about what it means not to matter, and how an extraordinary woman refused to listen to the stories she was being told about herself — by her history, by her abuser, by her mother, by society. It is only by speaking out that Gemma Carey learns she can break free from her past and reclaim her life, her self and her future.
'Personal and political, unflinching and generous. Carey writes with a researcher's curiosity and a survivor's urgency.' EMILY MAGUIRE, author of An Isolated Incident
‘A devastating and clear-eyed memoir with a poet’s voice. Gemma Carey will boil your blood and break your heart.’ ANNA SPARGO-RYAN, author of The Gulf
‘Powerful, raw and incisive . . . Gemma is unflinching in her personal investigation of family and trauma.’ GINGER GORMAN, author of Troll Hunting
