Anmeldelser
«[Krakauer] has produced a narrative that is both meticulously researched and deftly constructed.»
Alastair Scott, New York Times Book Review
«A harrowing tale of the perils of high-altitude climbing, a story of bad luck and worse judgment and of heartbreaking heroism.»
People
«Krakauer is an extremely gifted storyteller as well as a relentlessly honest and even-handed journalist, the story is riveting and wonderfully complex in its own right . . .To call the book an adventure saga seems not to recognize that it is also a deeply thoughtful and finely wrought philosophical examination of the self.»
Elle
«This is a great book, among the best ever on mountaineering. Gracefully and efficiently written, carefully researched, and actually lived by its narrator.»
Washington Post
«Into Thin Air ranks among the great adventure books of all time.»
Wall Street Journal
