A Silent Treatment by Jeannie Vanasco

Jeannie Vanasco chronicles the increasingly fraught relationship with her mother after the latter begins using the silent treatment while living in Vanasco’s renovated apartment. Tracing their shared past and the pattern of silences—from weeks to months—the memoir examines how punishment, loneliness, and unspoken resentments shape their bond and Vanasco’s attempts to understand and reconnect, all while facing the fear that her mother may never speak to her again.
