When Parliament accuses Alamayou of murder, the young prince is sentenced to return to Abyssinia where he will be executed. Alamayou's only hope comes from the very thing that cannot be uttered: the unexpected and forbidden love between him and Philip. Inspired by true events, The Night Language is a unique novel of love, loss, and the consequences of repressive societies.
