It was February 5, 2021. Chilean mountaineer Juan Pablo Mohr was more than seven thousand meters high on the second highest mountain in the world, K2, during its cruelest and loneliest season: winter. While the rest debated whether or not to continue towards the summit, he was determined: he would go in honor of his friend Sergi Mingote, who had died two weeks ago in his arms, on the same mountain that he intended to conquer.
He went out alone, at night, leaving his companion in the tent, with -40° Celcius temperature and a dubious weather forecast.
Never comeback. What pushed a father of three to climb the most difficult mountain in the world, where one in three climbers dies? What circumstances led to his fatal decision? Why did he ignore the advice of his friends?
Adolescent loves evoked with serene nostalgia, young people barely glimpsed, jazz reviews of impossible records, a poet who loves baseball, a talking ape who works as a masseuse and an old man who talks about a circle with several centers…
The characters and scenes in this highly anticipated volume of stories blow up the boundaries between imagination and the real world. And they give us back, intact, lost loves, truncated relationships and loneliness, adolescence, reunions and, above all, the memory of love, because “no one can take away the memory of having loved or of having been in love at some point in time.” life,” says the narrator. A first-person narrator who, at times, could be Murakami himself.
Is it then a book of memoirs, stories with autobiographical overtones or a volume exclusively of fiction? The reader will have to decide.
Any investment plan is, at best, a guess about what may happen in the future based on systematic observation of the past. However, making predictions is difficult, if not impossible. As the facts insist on demonstrating, changes are always unpredictable.
Morgan Housel invites us to change our mentality and ask ourselves: what will remain the same in ten years? And in a hundred? For this purpose, she shares the twenty-three timeless truths that she has managed to identify thanks to the great lessons that history and its protagonists have bequeathed to us. From the invention of the first nuclear weapons to the creation of Amazon, from TE Lawrence to Jack Welch, each chapter teaches us one of those fundamental principles that we should keep in mind to separate the signal from the noise, seize opportunities and navigate the uncertainty of the future in order to achieve personal success and economic security.
