'Silence is Golden' is a popular saying, commonly-dished-out advice, a rule expected to be followed in libraries and museums. What, however, if 'Silence is not Golden'?
Silence is not Golden chronicles the highs and lows of Nigel Ng's journey from childhood to adulthood as someone with selective mutism. Selective Mutism is an extreme form of anxiety disorder in which a person who is normally capable of speech does not speak in specific situations or to specific people. It is a condition so rare that it is misunderstood by almost everyone who initially comes across it.
