Description
"Let me whisper in your ear the Secret of the Ages..." A dying art dealer's last words reveal a story from decades past. It is about a writer friend, named M., who grieves over the loss of his virtuous young wife and cannot live without her. On the brink of suicide one misty night, it happens... she whispers to him. At first M. thinks his mind is unraveling but soon trusts that his wife is attempting to reach him from beyond. He embarks on a mission to connect with her. Continuing with the meditative and even dream-like nature of 'Essence', the author's first book, 'The Whisper' is told as a series of short chapters - glimpses of important moments and events, real or imagined. This distilled structure gives the story ample white space and allows the individual chapters to resonate, stimulating the reader's own imagination.
