Octavia Butler's short story Speech Sounds was first published by the December 1983 issue of Asimov's Science Fiction magazine. I read the story in her collection Bloodchild and Other Stories, published in 1995.
Speech Sounds tells the story of a woman living in a postapocalyptic world where many people have lost the ability to speak or read.

I'm posting these episodes as well as some of my own short stories onto my website http://www.joncronshaw.co.uk - my latest story Reaching for a Larlun is a surreal piece of fantasy fiction about the meeting of two minds.
