Well, this time he really broke me. I can't stop thinking about Mount Everest and about high altitude disasters.
What Krakauer and his companions endured in 1996 is one of the most harrowing things I've ever read. His reflections of his own grief, the other survivors' reactions, the true misery that they endured during the disaster...I'm honestly haunted by it. It had me sobbing.
Krakauer was clearly deep in his own trauma when he wrote it, and you can tell.
My respect for him as a journalist, a mountaineer, and a human being is higher than it's ever been.
