AFTER THE WIND
BY Lou kasischke ‧ RELEASE DATE: april. 1, 2014
In 1996, the most noticeably awful catastrophe in recorded Mt. Everest climbing history happened when, because of a mix of elements, eight individuals kicked the bucket on a solitary campaign. This diary is Kasischke’s own record of how he endure.
Hours before the misfortune, Kasischke’s qualms about the campaign were mounting. An excessive number of individuals were ascending the mountain on the double, and in spite of some superfluous postponements, the pioneer, Rob Hall, had kept on driving the trip, in spite of the fact that the group wouldn’t have the option to arrive at the top and return down before sunset—a choice so helpless that Kasischke and others censure it for the climbers’ demises instead of the slippery tempest they confronted that night. Kasischke is alive to advise his story since he decided to pivot at a basic crossroads, and he concedes that he shouldn’t have even gone that far. He was caught for quite a long time once the tempest hit. The creator drastically relates being solidified, got dried out and snow visually impaired and says that he depended on his adoration for his significant other and his confidence to get him through. It appears to be that Kasischke has decided to remember this bad dream so as to deal with it and to respect the individuals who didn’t make it, just as to add another viewpoint to a story the vast majority know through columnist Jon Krakauer, whose very presence, Kasischke suggests, assumed an incidental part in what occurred. Kasischke, nonetheless, never appears to be harsh or recriminatory yet basically genuine. He likewise honors his better half, Sandy, who, regardless of not being genuinely there, was an undeniable presence for him all through the difficulty. The hand-drawn delineations by Jane Cardinal additionally help the peruser imagine individuals and environs.
