After enduring nearly five years of solitary confinement, Terry Waite discovered that he was drawn to find out more about the power of solitude in the lives of other people. The result is this haunting book, in which he reflects on his encounters with people who have experienced some very different ways of being solitary. Through all these encounters, we see how solitude shapes the human soul - and how it can be a force for good in our own lives, if we can only learn to use it well.
