Silence

Omtale

What if the greatest secret of your life was not what you did, but what you kept silent about?Daniel Sandoval lives in Bergen, Norway, with a family that loves him but has never fully understood the weight of the shadows he carries. Then a letter arrives from Chile, pulling him back to a past long buried in fear: a trial for crimes committed during the dictatorship, a name he swore never to speak again, and the echo of a childhood scarred by state violence.As the archives of the past are opened in Santiago, his wife and children in Norway come to realise that the life they have shared with him has only ever revealed the surface.Silence is a choral, intimate, and profoundly human novel, a story of memory, guilt, and the secrets we inherit.
