The Sound of Silence
Irma GoldPaperback 2011-09-01
Publisher Description
Miscarriage is so common and yet within our culture it is an unspeakable subject. Women often grieve alone, mourning a child they have never met but whose future they have already imagined. It is a private, hidden kind of grief. A grief that gets gagged, buried, overlooked, dismissed, and stuffed into small corners-only to bubble up at unexpected moments.
In The Sound of Silence 22 women speak out about their experiences of miscarriage. These are stories of loss and loneliness, hope and joy, strength and courage, and, most of all, overwhelming love. They are a reminder to all women who have experienced a miscarriage that they are not alone.
'An open, honest and insightful book that offers hope and understanding.'
Trudi Penrose-Starr, co-founder, TLC Pregnancy & Infant Loss Support Australia.
'Confronting, authentic and grounded, these stories provide practical help for others who share the loss.'
Leanne Raven, CEO, SIDS and Kids Australia.
