Book Launch: The Roaring Silence
February 25, 2017 @ 2:00 pm - 5:00 pm
We invite you the launch of our latest publication, The Roaring Silence on Saturday 25 February, 2 – 5pm.
Join us at 2pm, with selected readings from the authors at 2:30pm. Drinks and snacks will be provided.
The Roaring Silence is a book about suicide awareness, comprising contributions from 79 artists, writers, poets, and a few professionals from all generations and backgrounds, and from throughout the country who collectively communicate the message that life is both dark and bright and that none of us is immune from times of shadow.
As editor Amelia Harris remarks in her introduction; “In putting this together I’ve realised how much everyone is affected by suicide. Even normal everyday people like my parents have been affected by suicide at some stage in their lives.”
The Roaring Silence is essential reading. In its diversity and creativity it is enlightening and empowering, challenging and reassuring and a great read all round.
