Ana Maria - 26 Sep 2011El libro está bien escrito. La traducción al español es bastante buena. Terray recorre su vida desde que era niño hasta poco antes de morir. No es una visión intimista. De hecho pasa de puntillas sobre sus problemas conyugales. Considero que está más bien escrita de cara a la galería, para quedar bien. Todas sus opiniones están muy bien sopesadas antes de ser escritas, lo cual le quita espontaneidad. Descripciones detalladas de las ascensiones que al público no escalador seguramente aburran.
Compré el libro porque me apetecía saber cómo se escalaba en esa época, tan distinta de la actual. Me han sorprendido ciertas opiniones del autor sobre la escalada y los escaladores.
Como persona el autor no me ha parecido nada atrayente y seguramente no sea un libro que vuelva a releer.
