The Raging Quiet by Sherryl Jordan
Set in a medieval village, the story follows Marnie, a young woman who finds herself ostracized by the superstitious townsfolk after her husband's sudden death. As she navigates her new life, she befriends a mysterious, deaf man named Raven, who is also shunned by the community. Together, they develop a unique form of sign language, forging a deep bond that transcends societal barriers. Their friendship challenges the villagers' prejudices, ultimately leading to a poignant exploration of acceptance, communication, and the power of understanding in a world filled with fear and ignorance.
