Customer reviews

The RAW Truth charts the journey of RAW’s first five years, together with stories from the women who chose to join them. It serves as a powerful reminder of the strength and resilience of the human spirit, and the ability to defy the odds when hope walks into the room. All proceeds go direct to RAW.

Reading this book is like following a river of love and its story is both beautiful and profound; combining deep tradition with completely futuristic models of thinking and approaches to personal change. However, it is also hard, and perhaps this is its greatest gift. These women’s lives are not edited for acceptability or politeness. They are as they are, and prison is as it is. In this time of justice reform, my hope is that this book becomes part of a conversation about how we re-create prisons from circuit-breaker to a place of healing, recovering, dreaming and preparing for a new life.

This is a book like few others I have read in the past decade or more. Told from lengthy interviews with more than a dozen remarkable women, and Annah and Rebecca, it will raise hackles of outrage, it may make you weep, and it will certainly introduce a hard focus on a section of life most of us never dreamt existed. Superbly illustrated, and told with no apologies for all the horrible realities it reveals, it is one hell of a read.

The RAW Truth, by Natalie Pearce, is a gritty and honest account of the work of the RAW foundation. RAW (Reclaim Another Woman) was set up by fashion designer Annah Stretton, and mental health nurse Rebecca Skilton in 2013.

RAW is not a one-size-fits-all solution, but it’s the best thing New Zealand has at the moment to solve a massive problem that most of us either don’t know about or pretend doesn’t exist. The RAW Truth will shock, and possibly appall some readers. It will also introduce you to a group in society that slowly, one woman at a time, finally has hope for the future.
