Books like If you tell-- by Ardith Trudzik


I am four years old, covered with freckles and nicknamed "Turkey‑Egg." Granddad offers a whispered promise that the freckles can be cured, but warns that if I tell anyone "it will kill my mother." This threat, repeated over the years, instills a crippling fear that my own actions might harm Mummy. As the abuse escalates, the need to develop another personality grows, until five distinct identities share my mind. I keep that secret for fifty years. Then a mental burnout finally forces the silence to break, and the five personalities emerge and find their voices.
