They Loved With a Closed Fist is a memoir, documenting the journey that one woman took to break free from the vicious cycle of violence in her life. The vicious cycle started with her mother who could not love Carmen the way she needed to be loved. The cycle continued with Carmen's brother who used his fist as collateral, a husband who abandoned her and her daughter, another husband who used physical and verbal abuse to control her, and a justice and social system that rejected her, despite her consistent plea for help. Yet through it all, she overcame.
