About this audiobook
The silence was deafening when the life of a twelve-year-old Ashwood Lane was turned upside down when his father abandoned him. He finds out that the absence is not merely nothingness but something heavy that smells of garlic and leaks of water, a language, and even a calling in a small house where garlic persists in the kitchen and the water stains create patterns on the ceiling that appear as secret maps.
Indeed, the unlikely friendship of a map-drawing stranger, a new friend of bright colors, and the stumbling, bumbling pluck of an old guitar show him how little things, laughter, drawings, and music can make empty places filled.
The Language of Silence is an audiobook of gentleness, coming of age, loss, and the silent ways we get new beginnings. So close, so vivid, so human that it makes us remember that even in the densest silence, there are echoes, which are waiting to be heard.
