As an explorer Erling Kagge is world class; as a writer he is equally gifted
Sir Ranulph Fiennes
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
Robert Macfarlane, on Silence
A delightful book that explores the strange land between getting out of bed in the morning and reaching for the moon
Tristan Gooley
A wonderfully deft Swiss army knife of a book. One really feels the hard won wisdom at the book's heart, the graft and nouse of life lived in arctic extremis. Kagge's preternatural energy, warmth and sagacity shine - a cool-headed polar philosopher to treasure!
Dan Richards
A marvellous human being
Chris Evans
Essential survival and life lessons from polar explorer
Foyles newsletter
His wisdom will soothe and awaken
Fearne Cotton
An author for our noisy times, full of a rare and deeply redemptive languor and perspective
Alain de Botton
