Description
In a world where every thought is broadcast and privacy is a forgotten concept, Todd Hewitt is the only boy left in Prentisstown. He lives in a settlement where the constant noise of the 'Noise' – the unfiltered thoughts of every living creature – has driven out all women and left the remaining men in a state of perpetual, overwhelming awareness. When Todd stumbles upon a patch of silence, a place untouched by the Noise, he uncovers a secret that forces him to flee his home and embark on a desperate journey for survival. He must learn to navigate a world that is far more complex and dangerous than he ever imagined, confronting the truth about his planet and the terrifying forces that seek to control it.
