ReadersMagnet revealed Reflections on Mountaineering: A Journey Through Life as Experienced in the Mountains (Fifth Edition, Revised and Expanded: 2023) by Alan V. Goldman at the 2023 Frankfurt Book Fair. The premiere international book trade event took place from October 18-22, 2023, at the Frankfurt Trade Fair premises in Frankfurt am Main, Germany.
Goldman’s volume consists of one hundred thirty-eight narrative-styled verses that reflect on human emotions in response to both trepidation and marvel while contemplating the role of uncertain outcomes in the venturesome activity of climbing.
An avid alpinist, Goldman also scrutinizes the human grasp of temporality and existence, probing for a deeper understanding of the essence of life. The collection showcases his extensive experience spanning across three decades of ascents, eloquently capturing the trials and philosophical rigors climbers face. Going beyond technicalities, these versified narratives question the ethical and existential dilemmas presented by the unforgiving elements. Employing diverse poetic forms including rhyme, free verse, and structured prose, these lines offer readers an immersive experience.
Most of Goldman’s poetic pieces derive from his own mountain adventures, companions’ exploits, and insights from mentors. The anthology, Reflections on Mountaineering, encompasses the intricacies and splendors of both mountaineering and life, merging them into a lyrical fabric that broad-minded individuals will appreciate.
