Between Silence and Sunrise is a reflective memoir meant to be read slowly, a book that asks the reader to linger. Structured as a journey rather than a straight line, it moves through emotional and spiritual terrain with care, inviting stillness and attention to moments we often struggle to name. The writing honours small, quiet experiences and turns them into a map for how we learn to live again after loss.
At its heart the collection is about becoming. Each piece stands alone, and yet together they create an arc of growth, loss, endurance and clarity that mirrors the way healing and self awareness unfold in fragments over time. Some passages offer sharp, honest glimpses of grief. Others open into a gentler kind of listening, a patient search for meaning that refuses easy answers. Thoughtfully composed and quietly honest, the book does not tell the reader what to feel. It walks beside them, offering language for uncertainty and space for reflection. Reading it feels like moving from a long silence toward a slow, steady sunrise.
Edhereveno Othuke Veno (E.V.O) is the voice behind this collection. A writer and visual artist from Delta State, his work explores themes of grief, faith, healing and personal becoming, using reflective prose and poetry to create moments of stillness and honest introspection. His debut collection, Between Silence and Sunrise, traces the movement from loss to light and from uncertainty to meaning. Each piece acts as both meditation and conversation, shaped by his belief that writing is not only an art form but also an act of witnessing, restoration and calling.
Veno holds a degree in Metallurgical and Materials Engineering from Federal University of Technology, Akure (FUTA) and continues to tell his stories through both literature and visual art. The result is a debut that is at once deeply personal and broadly human, a book that meets readers where they are and guides them gently toward clarity. Between Silence and Sunrise is for anyone who needs a companion through difficult nights and a reminder that slow, steady change is itself a kind of light.
