"If I had to describe any emotion felt on the summit, I wouldn't say joy. It was a vital moment, one of those moments when you're close to death, without any epic significance." On January 6, 2023, Alex Txikon reached the summit of Manaslu. It was a very tough climb, the culmination of a team effort after two previous failed expeditions. With great photographs, this book recounts the three expeditions that led Txikon to the summit of Manaslu, sharing his fears and suffering, his risk and pain, his innermost feelings, his laughter, joy, and emotional moments. Don't look for heroes, the goal is to survive.
