249 pages. 3 feuillets. 1 carte. (20x13cm). Broché. Couverture illustrée. Couverture un peu salie. Couverture et dos usés. Quelques marques de pliures. Coins émoussés et coiffes élimées. Par-dessus le toit du Monde relate un périple audacieux à travers les régions himalayennes, mêlant exploration physique et réflexion sur les limites de l'endurance humaine dans un contexte post-guerre marqué par la quête de sens. Traduit du norvégien par Marguerite Gay et Gerd de Mautord, cet ouvrage de 1951 capture l'esprit d'une époque où les récits de voyage polarisques révélaient les confins inexplorés du globe. Il s'inscrit dans la tradition norvégienne des chroniques polaires et montagnardes, offrant un témoignage direct sur les peuples et paysages d'altitude. Papier bruni et quelques petites rousseurs éparses.
