Part autobiography, part travelogue, Mountainish consists of 515 notes which unfold a finely woven interplay between six characters as they walk through the Swiss Alps, collecting memories and observations, giving us a vivid panorama of mountain worlds, a multi-layered typology of all things mountainish. Mountains may be sites of fear and awe, of narrow-mindedness, racism and ever-looming collapse; Alpine lodges may be places of hospitality, retreat and unexpected encounters; of nature under threat.
