The Shape of Quiet

by Theo Marsh

A widowed librarian and a recently retired man who comes in every day to read newspapers he never finishes. Neither is looking for anything. Over a year of small conversations between the stacks, they find it anyway. A gentle, unhurried love story about late beginnings.
