Conquering Silence is a poetry collection voiced by a wife journeying through an imperfect marriage. Her adoration and frustration toward her husband ebbs and flows throughout the narrative, capturing the struggles and triumphs of many couples. Ultimately, she answers her own questions: "Is love stubborn always, strong? ready to sprout though ash stings the soil dry, though time chills strength early before death? and "can poems and memories from 49 years of needlework be ripped from our souls?" Her examination of the threads woven into the silences that keep the fabric of a relationship supple invites readers to join in their own search for similar connections.
