Review: To reach the clouds

Petit's book is a fever dream of one man's five plus year obsession with wire walking between the WTC twin towers and - spoiler alert - achieving it.  He's an extraordinary and likely very difficult individual and he manages to fully capture his essence in his prose.

Probably the most fascinating elements of the narrative as those relating to social engineering.

Verdict: Highly recommended.
