The Weight Of Silence

Synopsis

The Weight of Silence is the gravity of all the unsaid's, the unseen's, and how they shape our lives. A father's drinking, a mother's shame, a daughter's longing to hold onto a trouser leg to hear someone speak of what happened. The Weight of Silence = 9bs 4 ozs. In her achingly funny, heartbreaking childhood memoir, Catherine Therese takes the reader inside her head, and upside down on a unique emotional rollercoaster from picking her belly button in her backyard in Black town, pulling her hair out standing on her head, to the stage; hiding inside her wardrobe interpreting silence, to the bedroom of a boy with a half a thumb and to the labour ward, in an unforgettable story of remembering, forgetting, pretending, of becoming who you are.
