To the Mountain

"To the Mountain pits a father and son against the wilderness survival tale's usual merciless elements: perilous trails, menacing predators, and poor cell reception. What lifts this novel above the ordinary also challenges readers-to enter the hyper-sensory perspective of the autistic boy as he puzzles his way through an insensate world. It is not a spoiler to say that love matters when the odds seem insurmountable and surrender feels like mercy."

-CHARLIE QUIMBY, author of Monument Road and Inhabited

"A deeply affecting tale of a father's love for his autistic son. Erik Raschke's lyrical prose evokes both the awesome wilderness of the Rocky Mountains in winter and the unfathomable wilderness of the human heart."

-MARGARET COEL, New York Times bestselling author of Winter's Child
