Sunday Book Talk The Ragged Edge of Silence

The Ragged Edge of Silence, by John Francis, who lived without speaking for 17 years, takes us to another level of appreciating, through silence, the beauty of the planet and our place in it. Francis's real and compelling prose forms a tapestry of questions and answers woven from interviews, stories, personal experience, science, and the power of silence through history, including practice by Native American, Hindu, and Buddhist cultures.
