Anger Is My Middle Name: A Memoir

An empowering memoir of resilience and redemption, and the rage that helped a girl escape the darkness of a harrowing childhood.Born to a violently dysfunctional home in working-class Denmark, Lisbeth Zornig Andersen and her three older brothers were bounced between foster care and state-run institutions, then back again to their chemically dependent mother and sadistic stepfather.

For Lisbeth, it was a childhood without perimeters.

It was blighted by poverty, sexual abuse, neglect, betrayal, and further victimization by the broken Danish social services system that forced Lisbeth to live where and how it saw fit.
