William Golding was in the Royal Navy during WWII, which likely resulted in seeing a fair share of PTSD. While there was not much known about this…

As the two men, Simon Yates and Joe Simpson set out to climb the elusive west side of Siula Grande, there was an assumption of risk; climbing is dangerous enough alone, but the fact that they were “alpine climbing” (climbing in it’s “purest form,” wherein someone carries the minimum of climbing supplies in their pack) guaranteed them more.

Of all the ways the world had changed, the one Simon had the hardest time adjusting to was how bright it was all the time. Back in Jiha, before that day when his whole life had suddenly turned upside-down, it had always been dark.

The first time he'd…

He believes that “God has a plan for him” and that there is a reason why he is alive. I believe that this movie has literary merit, years from now, this movie will…
