He didn't hit me in the face. A story of violence, abuse, and liberation
In this book, Oksana Shalygina, the former civil wife of artist Pyotr Pavlensky, tells the story of her relationship with him. This is a story about abuse and violence, about love and hate, about dependency and indifference. A poignant, candid,...
shocking tale of how easily infatuation and admiration can lead into a trap and the bloody price that must be paid to regain freedom. We stand by the doorframe, I firmly say that I will do what interests me. Suddenly a blow... I go cold, my body goes numb, I stare blankly at him, unable to believe what just happened. As if I am waiting for him to laugh or say it was a joke. But he is deathly pale, tense like an arrow, ready for another blow. I fall into an abyss. The blood has left my body, it’s deadened from shock, from hurt, from instantaneous betrayal. You will do what I need.
