“After The Seven Summits” – by Alyssa Roenigk at espnW
This is an incredibly inspiring story about a group of Antigones overcoming huge obstacles to climb the greatest mountains on Earth, becoming heroes to young girls in their home towns, and eventually using their skills to help their own devastated country. My attention particularly caught on Maya, whose father consigned her to same living-dead status as Sophocles’ heroine. Maya had the bravery to continue on her mission.
