About this listen
Barbara Marcus was born on Valentine's Day, 1948, a day symbolizing love, but her childhood was anything but. In this raw and beautifully written memoir, she chronicles a life shaped by abuse, neglect, and a mother's erratic affection. From early memories of heartbreak and hope in Brooklyn to navigating the emotional wreckage left by a string of father figures, Born on Valentine's is a courageous exploration of trauma, resilience, and ultimately, healing.
Told with fierce honesty and subtle humor, Barbara's journey will break your heart and then help you mend it again. It's a memoir for anyone who has ever struggled to feel worthy of love—and for those who know the power of a story well told.
