Publisher's Synopsis
Snow-capped mountains and peaks that appear precarious to folks who prefer the solid comfort of level-ground, are like home to me!I am Siddharth. My parents would have probably been okay had I turned to the forests seeking nirvana like the Buddha. But I have turned to the mountains to seek solace; or adventure, depending on how you look at it. The mountains are my home. They are my paradise. My parents wanted me to leave my adventures, marry a girl, and 'settle down'. I'm not sure what that means, but I understand their love. So I obliged them by getting engaged to a girl of their choice, but fate had other plans for me. During my mission to climb Everest, I fell in love-with my Sherpani, the woman who was my guide on the treacherous climb. Fate, however, is not satisfied playing games with me. It wants me to deal with more. Much more!I don't know if I will ever climb Everest. I don't know if I will ever win my Sherpani. But I know that I MUST. Even though life has taken a drastic and unimaginable turn...
