About This Book

Un narrador abatido abandona la ciudad en busca de soledad y se instala en las altas cumbres, donde recupera fuerzas y desarrolla un amor profundo por el paisaje: cumbres, laderas, hielos, plantas y rocas. Tras aproximarse a un pastor que le enseña nombres, rutas y leyendas locales, combina la observación de animales y vegetación con reflexiones sobre los procesos geológicos y la relación entre la naturaleza y la vida humana.
