The Art of Solitude
by Stephen Batchelor
(In my own Buddhist practice Stephen Batchelor has been a very big Influence. Starting with "Buddhism without Beliefs" and all his other books, and teachings. Yet this one is very dear to my heart.)

@poemblaze The interview - a discussion of the practice of solitude - is really good. @corlin
