Aflame by Pico Iyer

Aflame by Pico Iyer

Pico Iyer has made more than one hundred retreats to a small Benedictine hermitage high above the sea in Big Sur, California. He's not a Christian or a member of any religious group but his life has been transformed by these periods of time spent in silence. In Aflame, Iyer shares the revelations he experiences and shows how solitude can be a training in community and companionship. In so doing, he offers an outsider's view of monastic life. Radiant, intimate, and gripping, Aflame offers ageless counsel about the power of silence and what it can teach us about how to live, how to love, and, ultimately, how to die.
