About this listen
Antarctica: No cities. No war. No borders. Just ice — and everything buried beneath it.
For centuries, it was the blank edge of the map — a frozen void too cold to conquer, too distant to matter. But in the last hundred years, Antarctica has become something else entirely: A graveyard of failed empires. A mirror of global ambition. A vault of ancient memory — and future catastrophe.
From sealing ships to spy planes, secret bases to collapsing glaciers, White Silence tells the story of humanity’s strangest relationship with a place we still barely understand. This isn’t just a nature book. It’s a geopolitical thriller, a Cold War ghost story, and a climate countdown clock — all layered beneath a sheet of ice a mile thick.
Because Antarctica isn’t empty. It’s just quiet.
