Mount Everest, and all it means to royalty, explorers, imperialists, and two sherpas, perched on a cliffside, waiting for a man on the ledge below to move.

A British climber has fallen from a cliffside in Nepal, and lies inert on a ledge below. Two sherpas kneel at the edge, stand, exchange the odd word, waiting for him to move, to make a decision, to descend. In those minutes, the world opens up to Kathmandu, a sun-bleached beach town on another continent, and the pages of Julius Caesar. Mountaineering, colonialism, obligationin Sebastiįn Martķnez Daniell's effortless prose each breath is crystalline, and the whole world is visible from here.

Recenzijas

"Daniell reveals a fascinating universe in scintillating prose, precisely translated by Croft.Its a stunner." Publishers Weekly, starred review

"An ambitiously inventive, profoundly intelligent trek through highly personal experiences of lingering imperialism." Kirkus, starred review

"Brilliantly tangential...this book becomes a viewpoint from which we can see the whole world." The Observer

"Daniell uses a neat cast of characters, a sprinkling of sub-tales and a touch of comedy to create a story far broader than the reader might expect, an acerbic dissection of a tired world order and personal history of two very different individuals." Lunate

"Two Sherpas is sheer brilliance, a book that had me hooked in anticipation from its opening pages. Its a wake up call." Word by Word
