We will be reading Susan Cain's

          Quiet: The Power of Introverts in a World That Can't Stop Talking 


NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • Experience the book that started the Quiet Movement


“A smart, lively book about the value of silence and solitude.”—Daniel Gilbert, author of Stumbling on Happiness

NAMED ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR BY PeopleO: The Oprah Magazine

At least one-third of  the people we know are introverts. They are the ones who prefer listening to speaking; who innovate and create but dislike  self-promotion; who favor working on their own over working in teams. It  is to introverts—Rosa Parks, Chopin, Dr. Seuss, Steve Wozniak—that we  owe many of the great contributions to society. 


In Quiet, Susan  Cain argues that we dramatically undervalue introverts and shows how  much we lose in doing so. She charts the rise of the Extrovert Ideal  throughout the twentieth century and explores how deeply it has come to  permeate our culture. She also introduces us to successful  introverts—from a witty, high-octane public speaker who recharges in  solitude after his talks, to a record-breaking salesman who quietly taps  into the power of questions. Passionately argued, superbly researched,  and filled with indelible stories of real people, Quiet has the power to permanently change how we see introverts and, equally important, how they see themselves.

About your organizer

We believe the greatest adventure of all is in living our one wild life—the life that is entirely our own and has been waiting for us since we were born. Wild Within was founded to help you step into that life. We support those on this journey through retreats, gatherings, courses and workshops. We draw upon the healing and transformative power of community, the wilderness, the journey and a wide range of ancient traditions and modern teachings to aid those who hear the call of the Wild Within.
