Samuel Krier is a young and promising doctor. When he is diagnosed with cancer, everyone expects him to pursue treatment. Instead, Samuel returns to his childhood home, a dying town on the Kansas prairie, and spends the final months of his life writing mysteriously in a journal. Left to cope with his decision on their own, his friends and family wrestle with the ultimate question: "Why?" Written in the poetic structure of a sestina, Witness and Silence is at once a literary retelling of the Seven Seals of Revelation, a sketch of the desolation and decline of rural America, and a meditation on the failures of language and memory.
