BALTIMORE, Jan. 07, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- A fictionalized memoir of Christine Holly’s life, “Crude Awakening” (published by Archway Publishing) shares the story of a conservative, Eastern Shore woman who marries into a presumed wholesome Christian farming family, only to discover she’s surrounded by dysfunction and fetishes.
When the naïve young woman relocates to Oklahoma to begin her life as a dutiful farm wife, she discovers that not all is as wholesome as the little white churches and local county fairs make things seem. In time she finds herself a stranger in a strange land, aligned with a family with strange attitudes and deviant secrets.
“It has elements of fiction, though it is based on actual events. While it’s a story of survival, it is also a story of the author’s own self-discovery,” Holly says, advising readers that “A person should take time to know everything about a person before they marry them — as well as know everything about themselves.”
“Crude Awakening” is available for purchase online at the Archway link above, at Barnes & Noble and on Amazon at: https://www.amazon.com/Crude-Awakening-Christine-Holly/dp/1480895539.
