Wild: From Lost to Found on the Pacific Crest Trail.. by Cheryl Strayed. #hotbook

‘At twenty-two, Cheryl Strayed thought she had lost everything.
In the wake of her mother’s death, her family scattered and her own marriage was soon destroyed.
Four years later, with nothing more to lose, she made the most impulsive decision of her life. With no experience or training, driven only by blind will, she would hike more than a thousand miles of the Pacific Crest Trail from the Mojave Desert through California and Oregon to Washington State—and she would do it alone.
Told with suspense and style, sparkling with warmth and humor, Wild powerfully captures the terrors and pleasures of one young woman forging ahead against all odds on a journey that maddened, strengthened, and ultimately healed her.

“Sexy, uplifting . . . Fierce and funny . . . Strayed hammers home her hard-won sentences like a box of nails.

Riveting.” —Dwight Garner, The New York Times

“Incisive and telling . . . Strayed has the ineffable gift every writer longs for, of saying exactly what she means in lines that are both succinct and poetic.” —The Washington Post
