Suddenly Silent and Still
by Nin Mok
Suddenly Silent and Still is the story of a woman who suddenly becomes disabled; she lost her hearing in one ear and her sense of balance. Most of the book details the ways she overcame and accepted this hard time in her life.
Before this year, I read maybe one memoir a year, but this year I’ve already read three or four and it’s definitely a genre I’ve been sleeping on. I received a free copy of this book to leave an honest review.
I really enjoyed the voice the author had in telling her story. Very conversational and made the book a very easy read.
One of my favorite lines: “The unique lives of people qualify everyone to write a riveting memoir.” Every life someone has lived is a story worth telling. While not everyone may want to read those stories, I think this one was worth while.
If you are a fan of Viktor Frankl’s Man’s Search for Meaning, I think you’ll like this one!
