About The Author	Frances Itani is the award-winning author of four acclaimed short story collections and three poetry collections. She has also written a children's book, and was poetry editor of Canadian Forum for several years. She grew up in Quebec, has travelled extensively, and now divides her time between Ottawa and Geneva. DEAFENING is her first novel.
	'A deaf woman teaching a hearing man to make sounds again is only one of the wonders in this book. Because Itani's command of her material is complete, the story is saved from being another classic wartime romance–a sad tale of lovers separated. It is a testament to the belief that language is stronger than separation, fear, illness, trauma and even death. Itani convinces us that it is what connects us, what makes us human.' – amazon.com
Other text	Set on the eve of the Great War, a first novel of remarkable virtuosity and power for anyone who loved ATONEMENT, BIRDSONG or the REGENERATION Trilogy.
