The most controversial book on family violence published this year, BREAKING SILENCE was initially banned from major book chains after a 50,000 strong Facebook boycott campaign ripped across New Zealand, Australia, the United States and the UK protesting its publication. The boycott campaign had been based on false information, however, and designed to deliberately whip up public hysteria during a Coroner's Court hearing into the deaths of two twins. Now that the book has been published the critics are praising it. Breaking Silence uses the life story of mother Macsyna King as the narrative to explore the problem of intergenerational child abuse and its impact on modern society. Herself the victim of terrible abuse and abandonment as a child, King's life falls apart when her premature identical twin sons are murdered and the father is charged with the crime. Although we frequently hear "about" such cases, it is rare to hear "from" one of the key participants in her own words. Breaking Silence is the story of a mother's journey to hell and back, and the search for justice for her twins in the face of a backlash from a society that turned its back on her. It explores and sheds light not just on child abuse and violence in the home, but analyses society's attitude to women in child abuse cases. The latest forensic debates about child abuse injuries are explored, as are the social choices many of us face every day that can lead to disaster. REVIEWS: "This mammoth book is a top achievement & should be a school text.." - Rachael Ford, psychiatric nurse ***** "The book so many maligned before it came out reveals a mother we haven't met. When I last wrote about Macsyna King, I said I didn't think I'd like her. I've changed my mind. I certainly think she outclasses the Wellington radio announcer who posted on Facebook that after receiving her advance copy of "Breaking Silence", she had "spat on it, wiped my ass on it, and ripped it up". "Imagine your life reduced to sound bites of everything you've ever done wrong -and many things you haven't. "Oh, how we've loved to hate her. But the woman who emerges from the book is a far more complex human being. There isn't the space here to list the ways in which she's been unfairly maligned. Yes, she made incredibly dumb choices. But she's smart, hard-working, big on cleanliness and loved her kids." - Tapu Misa, NZ HERALD ***** "I feel sad that we seem to have entered a time in society where for many it is acceptable to attempt to ban the sale of a book before knowing its contents and I wonder at the motives of those who have joined efforts to stop bookstores stocking it. Could it be we have reached a point where to make ourselves feel better we have to find someone to hate, to direct our fear and uncertainty about the future of our world towards, and that for now, at least, Macsyna King is that person? Could it be that underlying the public discussions about the need to stop the book being read is a deep-seated fear that reading it will in some way leave us all with the question of what part we as members of society played in the death of these babies? Not in the sense of "Who was in the room?" but in "Have we really reached this level of disconnection in our communities?" "Ian Wishart's Breaking Silence: The Kahui Case...is not a book to ban, but one to read for whatever it can add to our understanding of child abuse." - Celia Lashlie, NZ LISTENER MAGAZINE ***** "We are very glad to have read it and thankful that Wishart (and King) have written it. Wishart has done the entire body politic a great deal of good. We would, accordingly, encourage everyone to read it...Breaking Silence will likely enhance Wishart's reputation considerably." - CONTRA CELSUM

Convinced by this one
By K. Depledge
This was an eye opener, I was truly touched and convinced by this book. I began reading with one set view and came out of the book with an entirely different understanding. Embarrassingly, I came to the realisation that I have been confusing many aspects of this case with the Nia Glassy case. This was a tragic story, really well told. In my opinion the Mum was far-from-perfect. But she was not responsible, directly or indirectly, for the death of her sons. My pre-existing belief that a mother is ultimately responsible for her children's welfare 24-7 is perhaps the reason for my initial views on this case. My own mothering instincts meant that despite how amazing and gentle my children's dad is, I would not have left them for any long period of time in their first year. However to demand that from every other mother is unfair and judgmental. Her actions do not equate to murder. Thank you to the author for this one.

Tragic!!
By Ana Tagoa'i-Anderson
Such a sad case of neglect and cover up of the hospital and social work system. Although I am not familiar with this case being I am from the state's, reading this book and the evidence presented, I couldn't fathom how the Kahui lawyers were portraying Macsyna. I also couldn't fathom the role of the hospital who may have a had a hand in their demise and to try and brush it off on the parents is unimaginable. Macsyna by far has her own issues but she owns up to her responsibility and does not seem to me what the media and Kahui's lawyers portrayed. When it comes down to it, everyone seems to forget the tragedy that happened and that was the twins and how everyone failed them.

Again I am much better informed
By Jon Mills
Another can't put it down read. A story of an intelligent woman who is now on the road to a better life but she received the most awful start through her gang speak and gang character training. She received the disbelief of all the people who should have been supportive of her in her darkest hour. And an unfortunate games junkie who by the evidence I now believe he was so hooked he couldn't bear to leave the game to look after his children and bashed and shook them to death presumably out of frustration. Caught in the deadly results of his actions he used the only weapons available to him, "I know nothing" and a persona of reasonableness.
