Unknown Pleasures – Collected Writings by Andy Kirkpatrick Available to Order NOW

Obsessed with climbing and addicted to writing, Kirkpatrick is a master storyteller. 

Covering subjects as diverse as climbing, relationships, fatherhood, mental health and the media, it is easy to read, sometimes difficult to digest, and impossible to forget.

One moment he is attempting a rare solo ascent of Norway's Troll Wall, the next he is surrounded by the TV circus while climbing Moonlight Buttress with the BBC's The One Show presenter Alex Jones. Yosemite's El Capitan is ever-present; he climbs it alone – strung out for weeks, and he climbs it with his thirteen-year-old daughter Ella – her first big wall.

Unknown Pleasures is Andy Kirkpatrick at his brilliant best.
