Synopsis: From the Brink of Silence: a Novel.
Sometimes it takes a time observing to know the entire truth.
The stories of nine people, tied to each other. Anne, who survived so much only to marry the wrong man, Jessica, solving the mystery of a night she can't remember. Lokelani, who spends a lifetime dancing for the boy she knows will never love her, Eliana, alone in a strange city, in love with a cruel boy. Arielle, who writes a poem for every day the man she secretly loves is gone. Ruthie, haunted by the choices she's made and the mother she never had. Ilana, searching for her family in Israel. Meira, in love with the forbidden, and Alan, an Olympic swimmer struggling with a splintered heart and the effects of leukemia. All seven of these people are connected by blood, by loneliness, by the pain and harshness of humanity. Each is tired, each is living on a fault line, each is about to fall apart. They have lost hope in their lives, but they will learn that the best moments, the ones you can count on, hold onto, are the moments in which you surrender your very basic self.
