Miracle in the Andes: 72 Days on the Mountain and My Long Trek Home by Nando Parrado

adventurous dark emotional reflective sad medium-paced

4.5

At times, this is an absolute horror. It is often described so plainly, it is a horror in itself, to come face to face with the normalisation of such immense suffering. It is impossible not to reflect whilst reading this. 

It gets a bit slow following the rescue - a fair bit seems unrelated to the story and the message as a whole. But still a gripping and worthwhile read.
