Award-winning journalist and author Michele Weldon offers a distinctly honest and articulate portrayal of the domestic violence she experienced in a nine-year marriage to a man many considered to be the perfect husband. As an assistant professor of journalism at the Medill School, Northwestern University since 1996, public speaker, journalist for magazines and newspapers and seminar leader for The OpEd Project, Weldon defies the mythology about abuse victims. She conveys a poignant portrayal of a woman caught in abuse and her victorious escape to raise her three children alone. Working to understand and explain why and how this would happen, she offers hope to all women with similar stories, modeling the courage to break free, move forward and live a joyful life full of love.
Could she ever share the secret of The Awful Year? There is one story that novelist Josephine Bourdillon shirked from writing. And now she may never have a chance. Trapped in her memories, she lies in a coma. The man who put her there is just as paralyzed. Former soldier Henry Hughes failed to complete the kill. What's more: he never received full payment--funds that would ensure surgery for his son. As detectives investigate disturbing fan letters, a young but not-so-naïve Paige Bourdillon turns to her mother's turbulent past for answers. Could The Awful Year be worse than the one they're living now? Set against the flaming hills of North Carolina and the peaceful shores of the Mediterranean Sea, When I Close My Eyes tells the story of two families struggling with dysfunction and finding that love is stronger than death.

If pictures could talk, what a tale they might tell. That thought lurks behind every image of Tom Young's masterful visual story of a life -- is it his? or yours?
I Closed My Eyes is a book where honesty, humor, compassion, sympathy, and empathy are imperative, where words come alive leaving one with the feeling of moral satisfaction, awakening suppressed feelings within the subliminal tunnels of love and truthfulness. The virtuousness of my writing will challenge one's psyche, relating empathetically to the lives of those introduced throughout this poetic ride of emotion. I will expound on the trials and tribulations of distress that most, if not all humanity is dealing with or has dealt with during life. In addition, my poems are to create a stage of play, heighten a climatic impulse, and draw one's soul close to the reality of what he or she is reading. My written language is a form of expression, expressing what one is feeling inside, yet having not the words to express such feelings as love, pain, confusion, confessions and the mere suggestion of being sick and tired of being sick and tired. Therefore, I give personal as well as therapeutic literature to the reader rhythmically with the hope of a new tomorrow, stitching torn esteem, renovating damaged confidence, securing all insecurities and giving pain a shape to better recognize and deal with. Most importantly, I'd like to inform the reader that no one is alone in this massive world of decisions. After reading the poetic literature from my soul one will think I'm writing about him or her directly. I have titled this book I Closed My Eyes because before I knew how to accept the reality of what I was facing, I closed that part of me wishing that it would all have gone away when I opened them. To no avail, my eyes opened and the situation remained. Closing my eyes inspired me to see within and face reality through poetry.
The author describes her nine-year marriage to an abusive husband and the difficulty of raising three sons alone
