One Night

One night anthropologist Cathy Winkler awoke from a deep sleep to discover a rapist standing by her bed. For the rest of that night she lived a woman's worst nightmare as she was repeatedly raped and beaten by the stranger. The pain of those four hours was dwarfed by the frustration of her decade-long fight to find the rapist and bring him to justice. Winkler a brilliant observer and ethnographer chronicles her story of triumph over adversity. <I>One Night</I> is an inspirational work and it provides a model of how researchers can turn the lens inward and incisively examine ourselves and our own world.
