Description

**International Bestseller**

"I am in awe of your courage...for you to be willing to share the truth of your life is an act of victory and triumph... You are a mighty woman. Thank you for writing this book." --Oprah Winfrey, Global Media Leader and Host of The Oprah Podcast

What if your greatest protector became your deepest betrayal?

When Caroline Darian received a call from the police, her world cracked in two. Her father--beloved, trusted, admired--had been arrested. What followed was a nightmare no daughter should ever face: the revelation that her mother, Gisèle Pelicot, had been drugged and abused for years--by the man they both called family.

But this memoir isn't just about what happened.

I'll Never Call Him Dad Again is about what happened next.

With unflinching honesty and fierce compassion, Darian tells the story of how she and her mother refused to be defined by silence. Together, they pursued justice in the courtroom--and sparked a global reckoning outside of it. Through the viral #MendorsPas: Stop Chemical Submission: Don't Put Me Under campaign, they've taken on the epidemic of chemical submission and lifted a rallying cry for victims worldwide.

For readers of Know My Name, The Choice, and The Fact of a Body, this is a must-read for anyone drawn to stories of truth, transformation, and fearless resilience.
