K2

According to Reinhold Messner, K2 is the most unconquerable of all the eight-thousanders, far more demanding than Everest. That’s why a traditional book is not enough to pay tribute to the myth of K2. This giant, dangerous and irresistible, deserves something more.
With the help of clear maps, beautiful archival photographs and detailed expedition routes, we reconstruct a full century of overcoming challenges among the glaciers: from the initial expeditions of nineteenth-century scientists and cartographers to the historic conquest of the mountain's summit.
It is an immersive reading experience that combines graphics, photography, illustrations and storytelling. A paper monument in memory of a rocky giant, dangerous and irresistible.
