I just finished reading this book and it was one of my favorite reads of the year. The deaf character, Dulcie, is not the main character but a strong secondary character whose storyline is weaved throughout the entire book. Dulcie attends the Halifax School for the Deaf in the early 1900s, similar to the author's late mother, Elizabeth Rowe (readers learn this in the acknowledgements section). I'm writing a review of The Silent Time for the journal of Newfoundland and Labrador Studies. In the meantime, here are two articles about Paul Rowe. And yes, an interview with Paul Rowe is definitely on my Christmas List!
