In an ugly world full of noise...

Escape to a place of quiet words and beauty

If you have ever loved

If you have ever lost

You'll recognize in this book contemplative words of joy, anger, pleasure, pain and hunger.

Thoughts and emotions, maybe deeply buried, or perhaps just below the surface resonate.

Memories of love and loss remind you of the bittersweet journey that is life

As with most art, the words in this book were inspired by love.

By women I have loved and one in particular, who I love now and may have loved before.

The woman who inspired many of these words is one of the very few truly spiritual people I have ever known. In spite of a life often tormented by cruelty and neglect, she retained a spirituality and compassion rarely seen in this world.

An artist, a poet, a singer, a dancer... a creator of enormous talent and beauty.

She enriched my life

As I hope these words will enrich yours

A Heartrending Journey of Love, Loss, and Redemption

Ameera has spent her life searching—for freedom, for belonging, for a place where her soul can truly breathe. Raised in a strict traditional household, she makes a desperate choice: to flee everything she's ever known. But the past has a way of clinging to the present.

Michael grew up worlds apart—culturally, spiritually, and yet bound by the same universal longing: to find meaning in the chaos.

When a chance encounter with an elderly Jewish woman leads Ameera toward an unexpected path as an artist, she dares to hope for a new beginning. But then, a haunting message resurfaces, dragging her back to the man she could never forget.

\"A New Book\" is a breathtaking tale of two souls colliding in a divided world. Drawn together by fate, torn apart by tradition, their story is one of forbidden love, shattered faith, and the fragile hope of healing.

A powerful exploration of identity, forgiveness, and the courage to choose your own destiny.

A powerfully moving story!

Searching for her place in a cruel world

Learning lessons from her past

Charting a new future...

“A New Book” is the story of Ameera, a Muslim woman raised in a traditional household who, in order to escape the life laid out for her, runs from her family and the only home she’s ever known...

And Michael, who grew up in England with his own set of values and beliefs.

A chance meeting with an older Jewish woman sparks an unlikely friendship that leads Ameera to a new life as an artist. But a mysterious series of texts revives the memory of the man who still haunts her dreams.

“A New Book” is the story of two people, strangers in a crowded world, who found one another in the midst of life's chaos. Fate brought them together, culture tore them apart.

A beautiful and inspiring story of love and spirituality, intolerance and loss... and ultimately redemption and healing!

In an ugly world full of noise...

Escape to a place of quiet words and beauty

If you have ever loved

If you have ever lost

You’ll recognize in this book contemplative words of joy, anger, pleasure, pain and hunger.

Thoughts and emotions, maybe deeply buried, or perhaps just below the surface resonate.

Memories of love and loss remind you of the bittersweet journey that is life

As with most art, the words in this book were inspired by love.

By women I have loved and one in particular, who I love now and may have loved before.

An artist, a poet, a singer, a dancer... a creator of enormous talent and beauty.

She enriched my life

As I hope these words will enrich yours

A delicate dance between silence and sound, \"The Deafening Noise… around the edge of silence\" is a hauntingly beautiful collection of poetry interwoven with timeless classical melodies, reimagined through the delicate touch of solo piano. The album unfolds like a quiet storm of emotion, where each note and word ripples through themes of love, loss, and the fragile spaces between.

From the aching pulse of “A Million Broken Heartbeats: to the tender uncertainty of “Maybe I Loved Her”, the music carries listeners on a journey of longing and introspection. “Tides” sways with the ebb and flow of memory, while “Two Lost Shadows In The Dark” and “Until Infinity Ends” encapsulate the essence of heartbreak, where every note reverberates with the pain and beauty of lost love.

“When Tomorrow Starts Without You” pierces with its stark melancholy lingering in the shadows of what once was, while “Whispering” fades into a soft, eternal hush. The gentle promise of “I Will Bring You A Light” shines through the shadows, offering hope and warmth in the face of despair. “Tell Me” invites introspection and vulnerability, encouraging listeners to confront their deepest desires and fears. “Who Is She” is an exploration of mystery, longing, and emotional complexity. Guided by ethereal piano and poetic narration, the piece paints the portrait of a woman who drifts between reality and illusion — a phantom presence both tangible and untouchable. “The Echo” evokes the ache of remembrance and the fragile power of longing. A haunting meditation on grief, memory, and undying love.

Anchored by the evocative centerpiece, “The Deafening Noise… around the edge of silence”, this work juxtaposes the roar of inner turmoil with the stillness of isolation.

A fusion of poetic verse and classical resonance, the album is a meditation on the heart’s quiet breaking—and the echoes that remain.

Exploring the Quiet, Enduring Echo of Love After Loss

What the Heart Remembers: Meditations on Love and Loss read by the author, Keith Whiting

[City, Date] — What the Heart Remembers, a new poetry collection offers an intimate and heartfelt exploration of grief, memory, and the enduring presence of love. Through twenty-one reflective poems, the audiobook invites listeners to sit with the soft ache of loss and discover the gentle beauty that remains in its wake.

Rather than offering closure or resolution, the collection embraces grief as a natural extension of love — a testament to the bonds that continue long after a loved one is gone. Through evocative imagery and lyrical language, What the Heart Remembers gives voice to the subtle spaces where memory lingers: an empty chair, a scent that stirs, a moment that rises unbidden.
