The History of Sound

Some stories aren’t written in ink. They’re pressed into wax—hidden in grooves only the heart can hear. The History of Sound is a haunting, beautifully told fictional narrative that follows a young musician, inspired by the artistry and emotional depth of Paul Mescal, as he attempts to capture a love the world was never meant to witness. Set in a time when silence was safer than truth, this is the story of a man who discovered that sound—fragile, fleeting, and painfully honest—was the only place he could preserve the one thing he could not keep. With every turn of the phonograph, memories return: a meeting that felt like fate, a connection too powerful to deny, and a love that lived in the shadows because the world refused to make room for it. Through music, sacrifice, tenderness, and heartbreak, he learns that some loves fade… while others echo forever. This book is a soft ache—a reminder that the most beautiful stories are often the ones we can’t tell out loud. It is about longing. About courage. About recording moments because living them was not allowed. A deeply emotional, lyrical tale for anyone who has ever loved quietly, fiercely, or against the rules.
