A Book of Silence by Sara Maitland
The author is a mature and devout woman who feels herself drawn to a personal exploration of silence. To this end she heads off to live in a series of isolated locations. In this book, she shares her own experiences, plus those of other lone adventurers who willingly - or unwillingly - spent long periods with silence. It makes for intense reading.
