Aunque ya sabía del libro de Maitland, publicado en 2008, vuelvo de nuevo a él a través de la columna de Harry Eyres en Financial Times que titula Does silence really exist?. Dice Eyres:
"The scary thing about silence is that you are left with yourself; the mirror which might have been conveniently darkened or blurred is now uncomfortably clean and unforgiving".
En la página web de la escritora británica se puede leer este apunte sobre ella y su obra:
For Sara Maitland, a practising Roman Catholic, silence has a profound religious dimension, which is also examined and discussed. This journey into silence has held surprises and setbacks, but mainly a deepening sense of happiness. In the end Maitland built a little house on an isolated moor in Galloway, designed for solitary and silent living.
The Observer ofrecía esta descripción en su crítica sobre el libro de Maitland:
Novelist Sara Maitland, a lover of solitude, offers a practical rather than romantic guide to life alone in the middle of nowhere.
