Your Silent Face is an 80s coming-of-age novel set in Flint, Michigan, that explores themes of class, family, violence, fitting in, fractured Native American identity and the transition to adulthood. The main character is a first gen college student who is obsessed with 80s New Wave and post punk music and struggles to decide if he should return to school after summer vacation or settle back into the East Side of Flint.

“The reader will likely be reminded of Nick Hornby’s 1995 novel High Fidelity or possibly Richard Linklater’s 1993 film Dazed and Confused….” KIRKUS REVIEWS.
