Healing Light is a word-and-picture book by the artist Elizabeth Munro, with an interview by Nicolás. 

As a very young child, she was sexually abused by a elderly man who was known to the neighborhood kids as “Uncle Happy."

Munro studied art at Leeds College of Art and moved from London to  New York in the ’60s, where she became a part of the art scene, all the while struggling in silence for many years with mental pain, anguish, and confusion. 

This interview, together with her artwork, helped her to finally understand that what happened was not her fault. It was time to take that load of bricks she had been carrying and put it down. The work on her Healing Light series and her responses to the interview questions by Nicolás helped her heal.

It had been hard for her to live with the repercussions of her abuse and the survival patterns she had been repeating for such a long time.

Munro primarily conceived and did this series and the photographs in the book for all of people she cares about and loves. She has learned to love.

 The making of Healing Light is also the healing of Elizabeth Munro.

 What is the best is that Munro is now spreading the Light--
