A proposito di questo titolo
This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice.
A doctor who has spent his life helping others. A Michelin-starred chef. A Premiership footballer. An extraordinary cast of characters. And one mountain that will change everything.

At forty-four, Dr Alistair Finch appears to have it all: a successful medical career, a loving family and a comfortable life on England's south coast. Yet behind the reassuring smile of a respected doctor lies a man quietly losing his way.

His patients need him. His children are growing up without him noticing. His marriage is drifting into unfamiliar territory. And somewhere along the way, he has forgotten how to enjoy the life he worked so hard to build.

Then comes a gloriously questionable idea.

Climb Kilimanjaro.

What follows is far more than an adventure in Africa.

From encounters with a Michelin-starred chef and a Premiership footballer to unexpected friendships with people whose lives have taken extraordinary turns, Alistair's journey becomes a sometimes hilarious, often uncomfortable examination of success, ambition and what truly matters.

On Kilimanjaro, an unforgettable group of strangers confronts the mountain's brutal realities. Behind the laughter and exhaustion emerge stories of love, loss, courage and regret. As the air thins and the summit draws closer, Alistair begins to question everything he once believed about achievement.

But the greatest challenge awaits him not at nearly 6,000 metres, but back home, where a wife and two children have learned to carry on without him.

Witty, poignant and profoundly human, What I Carried to the Summit is a novel inspired by true events, blending extraordinary encounters, medical life, friendship, fatherhood and one man's wonderfully misguided attempt to find himself on the roof of Africa.

Because sometimes the hardest part of climbing a mountain isn't reaching the summit.

It's coming home and becoming the person your family needed all along.
