An enormously engaging romance with strong political
underpinnings, You Speak for Me Now
by Sandy Graham takes readers on a rollicking ride as they follow an unlikely
couple in the struggle to survive against the odds. John McEwan is an outspoken
man who is in love with Emma Simon, a deaf, introverted character. John
McEwan's involvement in political activities earns him fierce enemies, forcing
him and Emma to live in seclusion. With mounting vicissitudes, can their love
survive?
Sandy Graham has written a story that is rooted in realism, crafting scenes
that reflect the challenges of contemporary Americans and offering an honest
exploration of social issues and statuses. It is a fascinating romance set
against the chaotic political and social backdrop of today's American world.
The characters are finely drawn, and from the opening paragraph, readers instantly
get a unique portrait of Emma, a character that is flawed and struggles to get
her thoughts out. ''It began when the teacher reading a roll call heard no
response to her name. He looked up and told her to say “present” when he saw
her raised hand. She signalled her deafness with gestures.'' This romance
that spans decades examines this character's resilience and grit as she
struggles to rise above her handicap. The couple is really unusual — a deaf
person in love with someone musically gifted. You Speak for Me Now sparkles with elegant writing and engaging
dialogues, a story that breaks, soothes, and uplifts the human heart. It is a
mesmerizing emotional rollercoaster.
