BURNISHED GOLD

1/4/2013

'Burnished Gold is a collection of stories from around the world of resilience, courage and healing after trauma. These traumatic events include manmade and natural disasters, interpersonal violence, accident and illness.

Every story has an optimistic ending.

Stories so far completed are from Scotland, England, Russia, China, Laos, Vietnam, Thailand, Ethiopia, Somalia and Costa Rica. Now I'm off to India where I'll meet survivors of the 1984 Union Carbide explosion in Bhopal, and survivors of the 2004 tsunami in Nagapattinam, just south of Cuddalore. While I'm away I'll be writing a blog called Postcards from India on this site.

After the publication of Triumph: A Journey of Healing from Incest, Trysh criss-crossed Canada speaking publicaly about her experiences. Invitations came in from other countries as well. Then the University of London, Enlgand, accepted her application to do graduate studies in Education and Women's Studies. She received her M.A. with Distinction in 1998, came home to Canada and began work on another full-length book. That book, about a man whose children were abducted by his ex-wife, their mother, uderwent innumerable revisions and rewrites before Trysh felt it ready to send out. She has also contributed to a number of anthologies, written a collection of poetry and begun a novel.
