Short and Concise Book

I was continually surprised by the many aspects the writer brought to the subject. Starting in the solitude of the woods, Martin explores so many fascinating side trips in our modern world.

Unique

I thoroughly enjoyed this work by Martin K. Ettington. I found it imaginative and repeatedly thought-provoking. In an age of narcissistic flamboyance and overly-emotive histrionics and drama, Mr. Martin reminds the listener that there is endless beauty to be found and become fascinated by in relative simplicity and the understated. It is a unique and gracefully eloquent work worthy of your time.

Super Book

This is a book that values the act of seeing, hearing, reflecting over the contemporary value of being seen. In an age where technology drives one toward the constant curating of one's identity, Martin asks if we aren't better served by looking within to find one's true identity.

Five Stars

This is at once an easy to understand book, while calling the listener to deeper reflection. I highly recommend it. If you like Barbara Brown Taylor and Kathleen Norris you should try How to Disappear.

Well Written Book

The Invisibility is a wonderful audiobook. Martin walks around the idea of being unseen and examines the concept from multiple perspectives.
