Publisher's Synopsis
In a world where the great extinction unfolded just slightly differently, Homo sapiens and Neanderthals evolved apart - never meeting, never clashing, never converging. Until now.
Tark is a young Neanderthal born into silence - a still observer in a world of instinct and survival. But Tark carries something rare: the urge not to conquer, but to understand. As he journeys beyond the boundaries of his tribe, he encounters wild lands, wounded animals, ancient warnings, and a stranger unlike any he has known.
Through shared breath, firelight, and the slow unveiling of trust, Tark and this other - Nima - begin to forge a new kind of language. Not of words, but of presence.
A story of connection across species, silence, and time, The Silence of Tark is a quiet epic about evolution, mindfulness, and the breath between what we are and what we can become.
