"Out of the Cocoon"-A Young Woman's Courageous
Flight from the Grip of a Religious Cult"
Brenda Lee’s heart-wrenching, yet inspiring tale
about her battle to escape from the Watchtower
Jehovah Witness after enduring years of
dysfunction and abuse.
The author begins by reliving the innocence of
childhood as she nostalgically transports you
back in time to a 100-year-old farm in rural
Pennsylvania, where she filled her carefree days
by swinging from vines, raising farm animals as
pets, romping through the forests, and plunging
from the hayloft. Once “The Friends” knock on the
door, however, Brenda Lee’s childhood and
innocence dramatically disappear.
But the author refuses to become a victim and,
like a butterfly, she learns to change the world
within her when her external world becomes
unbearable. After surviving years of stifling
oppression and isolation, she emerges from her
cocoon and learns some startling things about her
family, this “wicked world,” and herself. In
time, she learns to forgive not only those who
tormented her, but also the mother who disowned
her.
Anyone who has experienced abuse, alcoholism,
single parenthood, depression, or a parent’s
rejection will identify with the author’s
remarkable journey. Get out the tissues, because
in one minute you will cry and in the next you
will laugh aloud. Let Brenda Lee take you from
the depths of despair to the highest mountain,
cast you off, and show you how to spread your
wings and fly.
