Présentation de l'éditeur
The Sound of Gravity' is a harrowing, dramatic and powerful novel of love, loss and redemption as that haunting splitsecond memory changes the course of a lifetime. Trapped high on a stormbound mountain face in the icy depths of winter, a stricken young man is forced to fight for his life. Half a lifetime later, haunted by grief and guilt, Patrick is freed from his self-imposed vigil when at last the mountain releases his heart-rending secret. Joe Simpson is the author of the bestseller, 'Touching the Void', the autobiographical account of his near-death experience in the Andes, which was made into an award-winning documentary.
