The Introvert's Way: Living a Quiet Life in a Noisy World

Written by Sophia Dembling

Narrated by Rose Itzcovitz

For anyone who loved Susan Cain's Quiet, comes this practical manifesto sharing the joys of introversion…

This clever and pithy audiobook challenges introverts to take ownership of their personalities...with quiet strength. Sophia Dembling asserts that the introvert's lifestyle is not “wrong” or lacking, as society or extroverts would have us believe. Through a combination of personal insights and psychology, The Introvert's Way helps and encourages introverts to embrace their nature, to respect traits they may have been ashamed of and reframe them as assets.

You're not shy; rather, you appreciate the joys of quiet. You're not antisocial; instead, you enjoy recharging through time alone. You're not unfriendly, but you do find more meaning in one-on-one connections than large gatherings.

By honoring what makes them unique, this astute and inspiring audiobook challenges introverts to “own” their introversion, igniting a quiet revolution that will change how they see themselves and how they engage with the world.

Reviews for The Introvert's Way

[kblinn_2 · Rating: 3 out of 5 stars]

Since the publication of Quiet in 2012, introverts have started speaking up for themselves in numerous ways, including blogs and more books. This book by Dembling has the subtitle of "Living quiet in a noisy world". I very much enjoyed the first one-third or so of the book. As I read further, however, it dawned on me that the book is more than likely a re-working of entries from the author's blog. She focuses on introverts and parties as well as introverts' dislike of talking on the telephone in numerous chapters. More information on a broader array of topics would have been more helpful as opposed to more and more on the same subject matter. I pretty much had switched to "skim mode" by the time the end of the book rolled around. While the book makes some interesting points and will provide some degree of comfort and affirmation to other introverts, it's value is diminished by its repeated focus on a limited number of topics.
