The silence of animals

Book • 2019
In 'The Silence of Animals', John Gray continues his critique of modern myths, arguing that humans are not rational beings but rather animals who create fictions to avoid acknowledging their true nature.

Drawing on various literary and philosophical sources, Gray explores how humans decorate their existence with myths and how these fictions can lead to chaos and disillusionment.

The book is a sequel to his earlier work, 'Straw Dogs', and offers a profound reflection on the human condition.
