Produktbeschreibung
The Greater Fool follows renowned climber and accomplished Free Soloist, Brad Gobright, on his wondrous path of becoming. From the soil of his youth, born 8-weeks premature and miles away from the nearest vertical flank of granite, to the endless roadtrip he crafted in his quest for discovery, The Greater Fool ventures with Gobright up the tallest heights, and follows him into his quietest, most solitary lows. The perpetual dirtbag and seeming anomaly to much of society, Gobright shines in spite of his many setbacks, injuries, and odds to overcome. From his numerous free-ascents up the mighty Too-tock-oh-noo-lah (El Capitan) to the toils of looking for love and a balanced life, The Greater Fool details the unique magic of Gobright's recipe on life. A recipe which, beyond its monastic rudiments and its spartan discipline, is tied, ultimately, to the purity of his heart, the singleness of his quest, and the lightness-that contagious buoyancy-with which he floats across the whole of the human experience. The Greater Fool follows Gobright up to, and beyond, his untimely passing, where he continues to challenge and inspire the community of outside seekers who fostered him along the way.

Autorenporträt
Amateur wave rider, runner, and registered nurse, LUCAS ROMAN lives in Costa Mesa, CA, with his partner of many years. He studies all things, has hopes for all things, and fancies himself an aficionado of low bottoms and hallowed spaces. Convinced of the profundity of foolishness and potency of new beginnings, his writing is an attempt to triangulate that which is ever present but never still: the human condition. He strives for habits that enable singular expressions, which last a lifetime, but never stay too long. He writes for his friend, Jeremy, and his partner, Nathalie.
