Description

L'un des meilleurs écrivains de montagne raconte la plus folle des épopées sur le Toit du monde : depuis sa découverte jusqu'à sa première ascension. Un siècle d'approches et d'expéditions dans le ciel du Tibet et du Népal, pays secrets et jaloux de leur indépendance, a préparé la conquête de l'Everest. Les premiers chiffres de l'Everest sont formulés officiellement en 1852 dans un bureau du Bengale. Derniers pas gagnés sur l'altitude par la cordée Hillary-Tensing au printemps 1953. Que d'hommes au péril d'un vent d'une rare violence, d'une altitude que l'on interroge pas à pas, pied à pied, poumons déchirés par un air de diamant ! Des grandes expéditions anglaises et suisses aux aventures improbables d'une poignée de solitaires, la conquête de l'Everest est un exploit collectif, une pyramide d'époques et de personnages. " Chaque expédition monte sur les épaules de l'autre ", écrit R. L. G. Irving, mentor de Mallory. Le mur mortel des 8 000 mètres posa le problème de l'oxygène à tous les moments décisifs d'une aventure unique en son genre dans l'histoire de l'alpinisme. De 0 à 8 848 mètres : toute l'histoire de l'altitude. Avec ou sans oxygène, avec ou sans gaz de vie : telle fut la question de l'Everest. Les mots et le masque d'Hillary y répondirent, le 29 mai 1953 : " On l'a eu, ce salopard ! "
