My foreign language

The main character loses his tongue due to cancer, and decides to post an ad that he is looking for a spokesperson. However, the only interested party is an elderly woman. My foreign language is a parable about human (mis)understanding and (mis)understanding, about the power of language and words, which can echo into the void, to injure and harm, but also to address, to help and caress, always only according to how a person deals with the gift of their language.
