The most accomplished mountain runner of all time, Kilian Jornet, reflects on his record-breaking climb of Mount Everest in this profound and free-flowing memoir. This intellectual and spiritual journey takes us from the earth's highest peak to the depths of our souls, exploring the changing nature of the mountain over four seasons and Jornet's own existence. As he recounts a life spent studying, tending, and ascending the greatest peaks on earth, Jornet ruminates on what he has found in nature—simplicity, freedom, and spiritual joy—and offers a poetic yet clearheaded assessment of his relationship to the mountain. In this sweeping, soulful journey, Jornet illuminates with beauty and brilliance what it means to be an athlete, competitor, and human facing the greatest life challenges—for him, the mountain he yearns to climb and honour.
