My heart forgets in love

esmu skaitījis soļus un, bezspēcībā šūpodamies, elsodams sabrucis uz leduscirtņa. Lasot jutos tuvu piederīgs.*

*This book about mountaineering in Latvian is the first and only one. It captivated me. I felt like we were climbing together—from a simple trail to a complex ice ridge. Pamir is a seven-thousander, where the climber is on the edge. And this edge is very fine. The value of the book: it reveals what many, especially mountain professionals, no longer see in the mountains—emotions, fears, doubts, attitudes. I perceived it very personally. Just like the authors, I have counted steps and, swaying in helplessness, collapsed onto the ice axe. Reading made me feel closely connected.*
