They Can Hear

In a world designed for a silent majority, communication is entirely visual. Screens replace speakers. Sign language shapes public life. It is a world that functions beautifully — unless you can hear. Noah was born different. One of the few who can perceive sound in a society built without it. Marginalized from childhood, he finds belonging among two other “listeners.” What begins as harmless rebellion — using sound to outsmart a world that overlooks them — evolves into something far more dangerous.
