Produktbeschreibung

The success of Into the Wild brought Chris McCandless's story to millions of readers and movie-goers, but left them asking, What set the stage for Chris's willingness to embrace the dangers of Alaska's wilderness?

Carine McCandless, Chris's sister and closest friend, witnessed firsthand the complex and abusive relationship Chris had with his father that formed his worldview. Never before having shared this story, Carine has spent more than 20 years seeking the same understanding, reconciliation, and absolution she believes Chris finally found in an abandoned school bus in Alaska. In this touching and deeply personal memoir, she reveals how she has learned that real redemption can only come from speaking the truth.
