I wasn't listening to the conversation anymore. Hiding behind my glass, I watched Caroline, her eyes dark blue in the shadow, her lips moving in speech or smiling. And I let myself be carried away by my fantasy. From the deep forests of Quebec's Laurentians to intriguing Montreal's race track to flamboyant French music halls, Alena Martinu shares a compelling collection of multi-faceted short stories that focus on the one thing that is important to everyone-relationships. In her compilation of diverse tales, Martinu weaves an eclectic group of characters within a variety of settings while offering the inspiring message that love, respect, and communication are vital components to any healthy relationship. A wrong start for a young couple brings a catastrophe; a man nearly loses his chance for happiness simply by trying to do the right thing; an innocent flirtation results in a surprising bond for another woman; and an ordinary car accident causes an unexpected physical change for a race car driver. Interlaced with drama, mystery, and fantasy, Scream of Silence is an intriguing collection of short stories that inspires reflection on the most beautiful and unexpected moments in life.
