In Silence: Growing Up Hearing in a Deaf World

Ruth Sidranksy

In Silence is a haunting, bittersweet yet joyous recollection of growing up as the hearing child of Deaf parents. It is the story of a young girl's life in the silent world of her family's household. In its most fundamental sense, In Silence is about language, about words expressed, with both anger and tenderness, signs, moments of love and pain and the overwhelming human need to communicate.
