Little Philosophy of Passions. Hiking
There was a time when he would just go up in the cable-car and then stumble his way back down again. But, almost overnight, Frank Gerbert was transformed, he found himself studying maps, attempting to firm up his flabby muscles, and squandering his savings on all the supposedly essential equipment. The man who had, hitherto, been a respectable employee had mutated into a hiking fanatic. Soon he was plummeting into the abyss of obsession and the Grand Canyon, he crosses the borders of common sense as well as the Alps. In Frank Gerber’s confessional book this all comes across rather differently: unwaveringly, the author kids himself that his »hobby« is really »great fun«.
