About the Book

Qué se necesita para sobrevivir? Más de lo que imaginan.

"Yak Butter Blues" muestra el crudo reto de viajar pausadamente, un paso tras otro, en una increíble caminata de 1.000 kilómetros a través de las implacables llanuras del Himalaya. Únase a un hombre y una mujer audaces, y a Sadhu, su caballo tibetano, en el intento de convertirse en la primera pareja occidental en andar esta ruta antigua a través del rincón más remoto de la Tierra.

Su historia, fascinante y verdadera, de resistencia humana proporciona una visión íntima de las vidas de las familias tibetanas que les acogieron en sus hogares, y de una cultura única que se tambalea al borde de la extinción.

Nada podía preparar a la pareja para lo que se convertiría en la prueba definitiva de su determinación, fe y supervivencia.

"Recomendado para viajes de aventura y colecciones de cultura tibetana" - Library Journal

"Una lectura apasionante y fascinante que seguro que será apreciada por los lectores interesados en el turismo de aventura y la cultura tibetana. También es una historia altamente espiritual sobre la fe que nos recuerda que nada es realmente imposible, que los obstáculos se han magnificado en la mente humana, y que el viaje es mucho más importante que el destino mismo." Midwest Book Review

"Un cuento de gran altura sobre sincronicidad, divina providencia, monjes mendigos, soldados chinos de gatillo fácil y deshidratación." Pittsburgh Post-Gazette

"Una verdadera peregrinación que sondea el corazón del turbulento Tíbet y enseña a los impacientes y tercos occidentales a frenar y apreciar este increíble planeta." Honolulu Advertiser

"Sus locas aventuras saltan de las páginas del libro: acaban cubiertos por el polvo y la nieve, azotados por el viento, se pierden, les disparan...Esta extenuante forma de viajar les acerca a las extraordinarias gentes y los paisajes sobrecogedores de la meseta tibetana" - Michael Buckley, autor de Heartlands: Travels in the Tibetan World y Tibet: the Bradt Travel Guide

"Un diario de viaje que hace volar. Sitúa al lector en el centro de la acción a cada paso, igual que hizo Marco Polo cuando transportó italianos a China y, en mi opinión, mejor que Lowell Thomas en el polvo de Lawrence de Arabia..." - Joseph W. Bean, crítico, Maui Weekly

"Caí en el hechizo de la prosa vívida e intensa de Brandon Wilson. Es un magnífico escritor: perspicaz, divertido y con gran facilidad con las palabras, y hace del libro una muy buena lectura" - Royal Robbins, montañero legendario/aventurero en kayak

"Una lectura maravillosa y salvaje. La escritura es emotiva, viva y un poco amenazante. Yak Butter Blues se queda gravado en la mente como la impresión retiniana tras el flash de una lámpara, hasta mucho después de haberlo leído" - Richard Bangs, aventurero/presentador de la tv serie Richard Bangs' Adventures With Purpose

"Un auténtico relato de viajes y una odisea a través de paisajes que cambian vidas y oportunidades para tomar fotos memorables. Sadhu, el caballo que hace posible su viaje, cautivó mi corazón y el final fue más emotivo de lo que esperaba." (5 estrellas) The Rebecca Review, Amazon Top Ten Reviewer
