Mountaineering Story
by Guo Jing
About This Novel
In January 1991, a "Meili Mountain Disaster" occurred in the Kawagebo Snow Mountain at the junction of Yunnan and Tibet, which shocked China and Japan. It is currently the second largest mountain disaster in the history of human mountaineering. Because all seventeen members who participated in the summit plan died on Bingfeng that day, the truth behind the mountain disaster remains unsolved. The author Guo Jing has continued to pay attention to mountain disasters since 1998. In the book, the author combines interviews with mountaineer survivors, family members of victims, and local mountain residents during his more than ten years of field research, as well as data from various circles on the "Meili Mountain Disaster" to conduct an in-depth analysis of the incident and restore the full picture of the mountain disaster to the greatest extent. Compared with objective facts, the author pays more attention to the personal experience of the experiencer. In the book, "climbers", "mountain people", "glaciers themselves", "climbing enthusiasts" and "family members of victims", etc. Are all listened to and recorded. By understanding people's perceptions of the same event in different cultures, it is possible for cultures to communicate. The author hopes that through the study of this mountain disaster, he can explore the secrets of conflict and communication between man and nature, culture and culture, and ask about the meaning of free travel and its consequences. And use this effort to hit the stubborn rocks that hinder people's mutual understanding; use narratives that respect the facts to comfort those lives sheltered by the snow-capped mountains.
