Praise
“We live in a noisy world. In The Lost Art of Silence, Sarah Anderson reminds us what peace there is when we get away from the din and the clamor going on both in the outside world and inside our heads. Through a rich compendium of historical and personal examples we are shown the prizes, and sometimes pitfalls, that silence offers. A fascinating book to dip into when we want to opt out.”
—Vicki Mackenzie, author of Cave in the Snow
“A fascinating travelogue through the many worlds of silence as expressed by writers, artists, philosophers, hermits. This compendium of experience and reflections on silence spans the cosmic to the horrifying, offering a full spectrum of human engagement with the quest for quiet. Anderson shares inspiring stories and heroic encounters with the self in silence, encouraging readers to take up the quest and join the legions across history who have, in the end, found that ‘silence is not the absence of something but the presence of everything.’”
—Stephanie Kaza, author of Conversations with Trees
“Elegant and ethereal. . . . Readers will be fascinated by the author’s wide-ranging musings and drawn in by her lyrical language. . . . This is spellbinding.”
—Publishers Weekly
“Erudite and pleasantly eccentric. . . . Anyone looking for inspiration to turn down the world’s volume will find a useful starting point here.”
—Shelf Awareness
“This beautiful book takes readers through many domains of silence with its call to reconnect within. . . . A hugely important book for our noisy and distracted time.”
—Paradigm Explorer
