Our view

“Nobody’s Girl” is a harrowing and important memoir in which Virginia Roberts Giuffre finally tells her story in her own words. She recounts the abuse she suffered from Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell and her long fight to be heard by institutions that sided with her abusers. Some readers come away sickened by how many influential men knew. It is hard reading, and essential for understanding how power shielded those men.
