The Great Silence

Length1h 26m

About this audiobook

This book is an invitation to wonder. To look up, to ask questions, and to refuse to accept Silence as the final answer. Whether we are alone or surrounded by a multitude of unseen neighbors, the search itself is an act of hope, a declaration that we will not be content to live in ignorance.
