The Loud Silent Women Mabu Nteta

The 'Loud Silent Women' is a tribute to women we all know, sisters, mothers, friends or ourselves- As the author says 'They are quiet thunder' She describes women whose strength is like a deep, rambling from inside...its powerful without being loud, brash or in your face. These women have a core which is authentic and real and surpasses all that the eye can see. This book raises a consciousness in our modern world, which recognizes the beauty and magnificence of women who don't always go along with what's 'in'; not because they are clueless, but because they are past 'what will people say?' These women confidently stay true to what their purpose is in the world. This creative expression fills an important gap in how we understand our world because our discourse is often about what's going on 'out' there and not what's going on 'in here'. Ignoring 'ordinary' or 'plain' women has resulted in a culture which has forgotten that every woman has worth, is a reservoir of strength and while she may wipe noses of small children, or rub the feet of elderly parents, she still belongs to the ranks of queens and empresses." Loud silent women' is reminder that every generation has women who define and give it identity. It talks about friendship, spirituality, self confidence, honesty with vivacity and keen observation. We see women who have a real appetite for life, not an 'I'm on a diet' outlook, but one which savors all the flavors and textures life offers. This book is a journey worth taking because it's a reflection of what is great about women, not some image created by a one dimensional media, but the real deal as seen by a woman who may prove to be one the premier writers of our time.
