The Raging Quiet is a novel by Sherryl Jordan. It takes place in medieval times, when God was cherished and witches were burned. The novel revolves around a beautiful, hardworking young woman named Marnie, who is sent off to be married to a lord in order to let her family keep their house and farm. Traveling to their new seaside cottage home with her new husband, she encounters a boy her age who is being whipped. Raver is known as a madman with demons. As fate turns, Marnie becomes his closest friend, discovering that his behaviour has nothing to do with madness. Unfortunately for Marnie, the villagers see her as a murderer and a witch due to this friendship. This is a novel of longing, and the danger of being different.
