Sandra is the first to respond of those I have invited to review Singing from Silence leading up to its publication. She lives in a part of the world where Rich Mullins is not well-known, and she belongs to the Jewish faith. I am honored by her candid remarks. --Pam Richards

"Singing from Silence by Pamela Richards is one of the most absorbing and meaningful books I have read in years. It is a compelling read and once started it is impossible to put down."
"In the main, Singing from Silence is a deeply personal narration of the author’s relationship with the religious song writer and musical performer Rich Mullins. It is a beautiful, sensitive and tragic story. But it is also much more than that. While it describes the author's spiritual and emotional journey of self-discovery it is also an exploration of the true meaning of love. She describes their relationship as "'a lighter-than-air relationship: both ecstatic and excruciating.'"
"Her personal journey has been both joyful and uplifting at times but it has also been a tragic one. She describes the hills and valleys of the path she has travelled with sensitivity and insight. But what makes it so special is the amazing honesty with which she narrates this unusual love story."
"Pamela Richards is a unique and free spirit and she has written a deeply moving book that is filled with poetry and her own artistic vision. Her original view of life and personal philosophy are an important part of her narrative which is enriched with poetry, music, art and her unique form of spirituality."
"It is a book completely devoid of materialistic concerns which is so refreshing in these times. Inspired in essence by King Solomon's Song of Songs, it is a book to think about, to savour and remember."
