About this listen

"An intensely unsettling read." -David Demchuk, author of The Bone Mother and RED X

VIOLENCE WAS HIS FIRST LANGUAGE.

After years of imprisonment, a Deaf teen escapes his father's basement. Bloody, alone, and without language, he stumbles through the Saskatchewan prairie until he lands in an isolated psychiatric facility, where he meets Felix, another Deaf teen, who eagerly teaches him Sign Language. As the two grow closer, the ambitious and cunning Felix begins to see his pupil less like an individual and more like a mind that he can mold in his own image, and as his ego grows, his plans to break free from the facility become increasingly more dangerous.

Told entirely from a Deaf perspective, Apparitions is a powerful story like no other. With prose compared to Cormac McCarthy and Jack Ketchum, this is horror literature at its finest.

This is not just a book. It''s an eye opening journey into the internal thoughts and experiences of the main character who is non hearing. He is deaf and has been Severely Abused. The author does an excellent job guiding the reader through the eyes and hands of the main character. The writing flows like a poem. The book will make you sad, happy, shameful (for not knowing more about this community), hopeful, afraid. No hearing person could write a book like this. Indeed the author is non hearing (I looked it up) There are hard parts in the book. Severe abuse, sex etc., but there is a strong story of growth as well. The book prize people must have been sleepiing when this book was published.
