«Cap a terres salvatges» is the non-fiction account by Jon Krakauer, published by Símbol Editors in paperback (176 pages, in Catalan).
Jon Krakauer reconstructs the story of Chris McCandless, a young man from a well-off family who arrived in Alaska in April 1992 and went alone into the wild after giving up his possessions and money. The author combines that adventure with the protagonist's life to explore the passion for freedom and the dream of living in the wild.
The subtitle of the work is «entre la passió per l'aventura i el somni d'una vida en estat salvatge»; it belongs to the Portàtil collection.
For readers of non-fiction and travel writing interested in true stories of survival and freedom in nature.
