Description
What does it mean to venture into the mountains and never reach the summit? Paolo Cognetti narrates in his book about the journey as a desire for self-discovery, about circling around the meaning of one's pilgrimage, about escape and return, about the effort to let oneself be physically permeated by the landscape. The literary travel diary Never Reach the Summit captures his experiences from an expedition to Nepal's Dolpo, which he embarked on at the end of 2017 as a man in his forties, who must come to terms with the reality that he has definitively crossed the ridge of youth and that there is no path leading back.
