| Description | One November morning, Gisèle Pelicot was summoned to a police station — and the familiar world of her family collapsed in an instant. The investigation revealed a horrifying truth: for nearly a decade, her husband, Dominique Pelicot, had secretly drugged and raped her, while also inviting other men into their home to assault her.
When the trial began in France in September 2024, Gisèle made the extraordinary decision to waive her right to anonymity and insist that the proceedings be held in public. She wanted not only to expose what had happened to her, but also to challenge society’s attitudes towards sexual violence. Her words — that shame must change sides, from the victim to the perpetrators — became a powerful symbol of dignity and justice. In her memoir A Hymn to Life, Gisèle tells her story in detail for the first time. With remarkable honesty and dignity, she writes not only about the violence she endured, but also about the long process of recovery, reassessing her past, and reclaiming her sense of self. This is the testimony of a woman of extraordinary resilience who found her voice again and transformed profound pain into a source of strength and hope. |
