SPOKEN IN DARKNESS: SMALL-TOWN MURDER AND A FRIENDSHIP BEYOND DEATH ReviewThis is a difficult book to describe. Although it is classified as such, it is not at all "true crime" and those who are looking for strict true crime will be disappointed.
Ann Imbrie's "Spoken In Darkness" is basically the author's search for the memory of a murdered friend, both externally through research which includes courthouse searches and interviews; and, to a greater degree, through her own memories of her friend, Lee Snavely. The author was best friends with Lee for only a couple of years, but when she heard Lee had been killed she began her search, and in doing so she beautifully and honestly uses the experience to also examine her own childhood and her relationship with her parents, and to contrast that childhood with Lee Snavely's in an attempt to explain to herself how a friend she truly loved could end up so differently from herself - Lee a murdered prostitute; Imbrie a college professor. And, in fact, the book is at least as much about the author and her emotions as she remembers her friend as it is about the friend herself.
This is a highly literate work written at an unusual level of tenderness and honesty. Lee Snavely's murder, and some of her adult life, are described by Imbrie only as products of her imagination. This does not at all detract from the purpose of the book, which is to a great degree more emotional than factual. The pain in Imbrie's writing about Lee Snavely's childhood is palpable and explains why Lee's life unfolded as it did.
"Spoken In Darkness" is a truly soulful book.SPOKEN IN DARKNESS: SMALL-TOWN MURDER AND A FRIENDSHIP BEYOND DEATH Overview
