Chris Evans
«Essential survival and life lessons from polar explorer»
Foyles newsletter
«Silence braces a space within which we can hear ourselves think. Quietly, wisely, it makes a case for dumbing the din of modern life, and learning to listen again. Drawing on the experiences of Kagge's extraordinary life in wild places, this is a book of great concentration»
«His wisdom will soothe and awaken»
Fearne Cotton
«An author for our noisy times, full of a rare and deeply redemptive languor and perspective»
