The BookViral Review:
A heartbreaking account of the long-reaching effects of abuse, ‘System Exposed-heartbeat of my Life,’ presents the incredibly personal journey of Julie Jean Evans, who has waived anonymity to act as an advocate, speaking out to add weight to the realities of the terrible catalogue of failures in the care system in Australia.
Evan’s memoir is no sugar-coated tale of suffering and redemption-rather a candid account of her own personal struggles in reaction to being torn from loving parents at the tender age of 8 and left at the mercy of a cruel and white-washing care system.
Branded with ‘mild intellectual disorder’ by those who gave no thought to the inevitable attachment consequences linked with losing a primary caregiver, Evans relays her complex journey towards recovery and stands for those who have privately endured the darkness that lay in their community.
However, this in not only a story of the lifelong impact of abuse. It is a story of hope, living and survival, and even enjoying the simple pleasures of life beyond PTSD.
As one of the ‘Forgotten Australians’ Evan’s story stands with the unequivocal apology made by the Australian Government, in recognising the horrific failures of institutional care throughout the later part of the 20th Century, which affected countless fragile young lives.
In triumphing over her past and building a life for herself and her seven children, Evans gives the promise of light at the end of the tunnel with infectious optimism. More, she is an inspiration to others who like her have experienced the long-reaching effects of abuse and a broken system.
A harrowing but hopeful read full of the promise of recovery System Exposed-heartbeat of my Life is highly recommended!

While the occult is a broad umbrella, hiding its many forms under its silky black folds, it’s concepts have endured through time, enjoying many a resurgence through the ages. The term ‘occultism’, is relatively new, not used in French or English literature, for instance, until the 19th Century, although the term ‘occult sciences’ was commonly used in the 16th Century to describe practices such as astrology, alchemy, mysticism, and natural magic.
The religious book market and faith-based poetry continues to see year on year growth, which certainly indicates a surge of public interest in what has historically been a minority genre.
The fact is that few authors really master the art of suspense and those who do are the ones who come to understand its underpinning psychology.
The current state of world politics and the relentless pace of change continues to prove a rich source of inspiration for authors writing political satire.
