«Seeing a human being who fulfills his dream is something wonderful. Like going to the moon or discovering America: this is why we are here. These are the words of
Tamara Lunger , the young and strong Italian mountaineer who in February 2016 attempted the summit of Nanga Parbat with Simone Moro in winter. Moro reached the summit with Alex Txikon and Ali Sadpara.
She quit when she was only seventy meters from the top of the mountain. He felt bad, and listened to his "inner voice" urging him to descend, aware that if for the sake of glory he had continued to climb, then he would have needed help to descend, perhaps endangering his fellow climbers.
But who is this woman and what is it that pushes Tamara to these extreme challenges & # 63;
In this book, the mountaineer recounts her adventure in Nanga Parbat, but also delves into the world around her and inside herself. In this way, an explosive personality is revealed, that of a person who, having grown up in close contact with nature, and accustomed from a young age to testing himself in the world of sports, cultivates the passion of mountaineering as a way of finding himself .
Undoubtedly, being a woman in an environment that has hitherto been almost exclusively masculine has a price: in base camp you have to assert yourself, you have to show that you are capable of putting in effort and performing "like a man" and sometimes even holding off on. guys who "look like sailors who have just gotten off a ship" ... But Tamara, perhaps thanks to a bit of madness in the face of danger, sees mountaineering as an opportunity to constantly improve, and feel in harmony with the cosmos. For her, the challenge on the mountain actually has some spirituality, it helps her feel closer to God. And it gives you happiness. Reading these pages, which are sometimes adventurous and sometimes thoughtful, is like receiving a shot of pure energy.
