This is a true story of survival set in the most extreme mental and physical landscapes: a journey through total breakdown, the depths of loss and the beauty and danger of high mountains

In her early thirties, Kate Armstrong was on top of the world: building a future with the love of her life, thriving in a fast-moving career and climbing spectacular mountain peaks. Then, out of the blue, she had a shattering breakdown, fell into near-fatal addiction and almost destroyed her marriage.

A decade later, she’s hit by catastrophe of a whole different order. Unable to find her way forward, she turns to her past experiences for lessons in how to survive. Then, the mountains grounded her. Now, they become her salvation.

I Am Here ranges between high-altitude Alpine ice peaks and psychiatric hospitals, the wilds of Scotland and basement AA meetings, London backstreets and the fierce beauty of the remote Himalaya. It is a love story. It is a testament to those who care for and guide us. Above all it demonstrates the wisdom that can come from deep pain – and how it can help us through whatever lies ahead.

The mountains of rock and ice were so much more straightforward than the mountains of my mind

批評家のレビュー

Armstrong’s visceral descriptions of scaling peaks and unravelling minds establish her as a writer to watch out for. Hers is a voice that refuses to look away, even when the terrain turns treacherous. I was gripped (LEMN SISSAY)
Gripping... I kept having to remind myself that everything was true. Searingly honest, brutally real and yet reassuringly gentle, I Am Here left me breathless. Armstrong grips humanity tightly, refusing to let go or give up, when many others might have... Lessons for all of us are woven into Armstrong's beautiful prose (MANNI COE, author of Sunday Times bestseller brother.do.you.love.me)
A landmark memoir with the power to stun, horrify and inspire -- often within a single sentence. Brilliantly written and intricately constructed, it is a testament to deepening self-knowledge and the brute will to survive. An amazing, unique book (TOBY LITT)
