Overview

When Silence Shatters is where love, tradition, and toxic masculinity collide. This collection of short stories gives voice to those who are often stripped of it - LGBTQ individuals, women, men and children carrying the heavy weight of expectations, and the only language they have been taught to speak is silence. These are narratives of resistance, endurance, survival, and hope. Fragile yet unbreakable, When Silence Shatters is a journey from darkness to light, from pain to healing, and from fear to courage.
