Award winning book is based on real-life accounts, "Imelda's Secret" delves into the story of two cousins who are grappling with the emotional scars of being forced to serve as 'comfort women' during the Japanese occupation of the Philippines in World War II. Forced into sexual slavery, 'comfort women' were stolen from their families and stripped of their dignity. The stories of these women have been swept under the rug for far too long.
"Imelda's Secret" is a story of story of hope, redemption, and strength. It exposes the experiences of 'comfort women' in the hopes of sparking awareness and advocacy in all who read it.
