1990Here is a Siberia unheard of in the West. Once the most remote place of exile in all of Russia, Mowat describes it as a burgeoning land of opportunity and growth. Granted extraordinary freedom to visit places rarely seen by any westerner since 1917, Farley Mowat and his wife, Claire, travelled more than 29,000 miles over mountains, steppes, taiga and tundra to meet the people who have chosen to make Siberia their home and livelihood.With his classic exuberance and wit, Mowat brings to life a place and a people who share the top of the world with us - their hopes and aspirations, their humour, and their dedication to the dramatic awakening of Sibir, the Sleeping land. 338. maps index Book

2019br. L'impresa che Simone Moro ha portato a termine nell'inverno del 2018 è emblematica di tutta la sua eccezionale carriera e, allo stesso tempo, segna una svolta. In oltre trent'anni di alpinismo, infatti, Moro ha scelto di non concentrarsi sul cosa - vetta, quota, record... - ma sul come. Ovvero sul senso di confrontarsi con la Natura. Un senso che ha trovato in due parole: "freddo" ed "esplorazione". Le ascensioni in invernale gli hanno sempre consentito di inoltrarsi, oltre che nei luoghi, anzitutto nell'intimo di se stesso. Si spiega così perché Moro, scoprendo per caso che la Yakutia, in Siberia, è la regione abitata in cui si raggiungono le temperature più basse del pianeta, abbia deciso d'impulso di andare a conoscerla per poi salire sulla sua cima più alta, il Pic (o Gora) Pobeda. In questo libro si dipana il suo racconto che ha il sapore di un'avventura di Jules Verne o delle cronache di un grande esploratore. Non è banale preparare il viaggio in questa terra remotissima e mal collegata, per penetrare nella quale occorrono compagni motivati, una particolare attrezzatura per difendersi dal gelo e una guida che conosca le popolazioni locali. Ma arrivandovi le sorprese superano la fantasia: distese di ghiaccio percorse da camionisti solitari, immense foreste, e anche tanta vita - cercatori d'oro e cacciatori di pellicce -, tanta "gelida normalità" - chi vende al mercato pesce che si congela direttamente sul banco, chi non avendo un box riscaldato tiene il motore dell'auto acceso per tre mesi consecutivi - e tanta Storia, come quella dei gulag e della orrorosa Strada delle ossa. Naturalmente, con Simone Moro e Tamara Lunger, non può mancare infine la conquista mozzafiato del Pic Pobeda, una vetta di 3003 metri che, tra il freddo e la difficoltà, li mette più alla prova di alcuni ottomila himalayani, coronando magnificamente un'impresa che è una grande esplorazione del mondo e anche di sé.
