Book Description

About The Book

As events crowd around us at an incredible pace, the individual's becomes a lost, anonymous face in the melee. His voice is choked before it can utter 9ts first, incredulous birth-cry, his mind- if at all he is left with one-spins giddily on the centrifuge of history. What is thrown out is silence, the lone oasis left throbbing in this barrenness. The Silent Cry gathers glimpses from the world around us, to retrieve what is meaningful into that oasis of silence. It does not volunteer for Causes, those hungry hordes stalking the arid plains. It peers out from the edges of that primeval silence and gives its first cry.
