Thubron sets off to Mount Kailas in Tibet, a peak sacred to one-fifth of the world's population and the source of four of India's great rivers. Though Kailas has never been climbed, Thubron embarks on a pilgrimage that begins in Nepal and crosses into Tibet. This an engrossing and affecting travel memoir that transcends the mere physical journey, an utterly moving read.
