Dos sherpas se arrodillan al borde del abismo, permanecen alliÌ, intercambian algunas palabras a la espera de que el hombre se mueva, o de que llegue el momento del descenso. En esos minutos, el universo se abre sobre el Monte Everst: hacia un pueblo soleado en otro continente, hacia el pasado, hacia las paÌginas de Julio CeÌsar, hacia una oficina municipal... MontanÌismo, expansioÌn colonial, botaÌnica, arte, geologiÌa, en la fluida prosa de 520 $a An Englishman has fallen from a ridge in Nepal. His guides kneel at the edge, exchanging the odd word, waiting for him to move. They must make a decision to descend. In those minutes, Two Sherpas expands dizzyingly to encompass Mount Everest's place in the imagination of imperialists, Nazis and others; ambition, exploration and exploitation; a mysterious encounter in a beach resort in a distant land; a performance of Shakespeare's Julius Caesar, and so much more. Perched on that rocky ledge, each breath is crystalline, and the whole world is visible from here. 650 0 $a Sherpa (Nepalese people) $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Conduct of life $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Mountaineering $v Fiction. 651 0 $a Everest, Mount (China and Nepal) $v Fiction. 651 0 $a Himalaya Mountains $v Fiction. 651 0 $a Nepal $v Fiction. 650 0 $a MontanÌismo $v Novela. 650 0 $a Conducta (EÌtica) $v Novela. 941 $a 1 952 $l XXPH787 $d 20230713113956.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=F104C5A0214711EEBC7340321FECA4DB 994 $a C0 $b IWBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
