Description
After the Fire, a Still Small Voice by Evie Wyld is a powerful and moving novel about two men from different eras who find themselves grappling with their own personal demons. Frank's attempt to escape his troubled past leads him to a beach shack, where he becomes embroiled in a community still reeling from its own secrets. As Frank struggles to form connections with those around him, including the precocious young daughter of his neighbors, he begins to uncover the darker truths beneath the surface of this idyllic setting. Meanwhile, decades earlier, Leon is fighting to hold together his family's life as the Korean War rages on, and later, as a conscript in the Vietnam War, he must confront the harsh realities of war. Through the interconnected stories of Frank and Leon, Wyld explores themes of trauma, identity, and the enduring power of human connection.
