Silence betrays hidden tumultuous pasts.

If the unspoken haunts you, this book resonates deeply. "Days in the History of Silence" is more than a tale; it's an intricate dance of memories and shadows. Merethe Lindstrom masterfully delves into how untold histories can shape lives as profoundly as the events themselves. Eva and Simon's journey is one of confronting the silence, making it a compelling read for anyone interested in the complex fabric of human relationships and the unvoiced truths that we carry.

Description

Eva and Simon have spent most of their adult lives together. He is a physician and she is a teacher, and they have three grown daughters and a comfortable home. Yet what binds them together isn’t only affection and solidarity but also the painful facts of their respective histories, which they keep hidden even from their own children. But after the abrupt dismissal of their housekeeper and Simon’s increasing withdrawal into himself, the past can no longer be repressed.
