Silent Voices (collection) |
Description |
"Silent Voices is a collection of personal stories. The contributors are people who have in some way been affected by Partition or the ‘Troubles’ in Ireland or by conflict elsewhere in the world. All have a specific Sligo connection although the stories are not all set in Sligo. The stories reflect the people who told them and it is their own voice and words that you read in this book. The stories were told to an interviewer and later edited by that interviewer in collaboration with the storyteller. What you read here is the final distillation from that process." (from the Preface of 'Silent Voices'). |
