"A vibrantly physical book"—TheGuardian• "Uplifting and brave"—Stylist• "A riveting account of loneliness, anxiety and survival"—Cosmopolitan
In 2018, writerClaire Nelsonmade international headlines when she fell over 25 feet after wandering off the trail in a deserted corner of Joshua Tree. The fall shattered her pelvis, rendering her completely immobile. There Claire lay for the next four days, surrounded by boulders that muffled her cries for help, but exposed her to the relentless California sun above. Her rescuers had not expected to find her alive.
InTHINGS I LEARNED FROM FALLINGClaire tells not only her story of surviving, but also her story of falling. What led this successful thirty-something to a desert trail on the other side of the globe from her home where no one knew she would be that day? At once the unbelievable story of an impossible event, and the human journey of a young woman wrestling with the agitation of past and anxiety of future.
