Kathy's Story - Softcover
The infamous Magdalen Laundries operated for over eight decades. Thousands of young Irish girls were incarcerated in homes run by nuns and subjected to punishing work routines. Many were beaten and sexually abused. Miraculously, the author survived, and has chosen to tell her story in the hope that she can help other victims.
