About the Book
Launched in October 2024, the book When Life Throws You A Curveball: Eight Women's Journey from Darkness to Light is a collaboration between author Rosie Wee and the Singapore After-Care Association (SACA).
It shares the powerful stories of eight women who have experienced incarceration, highlighting their journeys through hardship toward hope and renewal.
"The stories of these eight women shed light on the adversity and fraught personal circumstances that eventually led each of them to fall foul of the law. But these are also stories of remarkable strength and resilience, and they give reason for hope.
They show how difficult it can be to break free from the cycles of addiction, violence, abuse and neglect that often contribute to criminal behaviour - but they also show that, with courage and resolve, these formidable challenges can be overcome."
