Book cover: “Silence in the Age of Noise” by Erling Kagge; trans. Becky L. Crook (Penguin, 2017)

Short, philosophical musings by polar explorer turned philosopher Erling Kagge. Insightful in places but the thoughts come piecemeal, as if written down (each after some mulling over) between bouts of silence and then left alone, presented without any great attempt at integration.
