The High Sierra: A Love Story (A Journey with Kim Stanley Robinson)

One of our “greatest living science fiction writers” (The New Yorker ) will show you a view that even his prodigious imagination couldn’t have dreamed up. Kim Stanely Robinson is an environmentalist and bestselling author whose latest masterwork, The Ministry for the Future, was one of Barack Obama’s favorite books of the year. Now he’s bringing us to dizzying heights with his first nonfiction book, the spectacular The High Sierra: A Love Story, a passionately written, visually dazzling hymn to one of the most surreally beautiful natural landscapes in the world. In a multimedia extravaganza with breathtaking firsthand photos and footage, this scribe of worlds unknown, imagined, and witnessed will take you on one of the most incredible hikes of your life.

What a wonderful talk! Kim does everything first class. I'm working my way through Ministry For The Future and it's clear he has given the future alot of thought. Next to read is The High Sierra! Can't wait!

About 2/3 through The High Sierra. You will love it. And it covers such a wide range of experience, geology, stories, that you will be making notes throughout. Have fun!
