"There's no Going Back: A short story" by Siggy Buckley is a touching story that was written from the heart. Such a interesting account of the lives of refugees. Very well done and realistic. It’s a heart wrenching tale that pulled me in and moved me. War is never pretty and this is a very deep reminder. Makes you grateful for the blessing that we having if we are lucky enough to live without war.This story is honest, emotional and entertaining. So compelling that I wish the story was a full length novel rather than a short story. Miss. Buckley writes with conviction, passion and dedication.“Being only 8, I never quite figured out what went on at night. Bruised and battered, the rape victims returned in the early hours of the morning, many with their clothes torn and deeply disturbed. Even we children knew that whatever had happened was bad. The fear became almost unbearable when we heard gunshots during the night. Some women never returned; how many ended up pregnant, I don’t know.”
