About this title

Synopsis

Aron Ralston, un experimentado excursionista de veintisiete a�os, emprende un solitario paseo por un remoto y estrecho ca��n de Utah, cuando una roca de m�s de trescientos cincuenta kilos se desprende y le aplasta la mano y la mu�eca derecha contra la pared del ca��n. Adem�s del dolor terrible al que se ve sometido, Aron se da cuenta de que ha quedado completamente atrapado. Nadie sabe d�nde est�; nadie vendr� a rescatarlo. Le queda agua y comida para pocas horas m�s. Su �nica herramienta es una navaja de bolsillo. Sus opciones se agotan una a una. En la quinta noche, presa del delirio y de escalofr�os incontrolables, Aron grava su propio epitafio en la pared de roca, convencido de que ya no volver� a ver la luz del d�a.

Sin embargo, al d�a siguiente tiene una idea terrible y salvadora: si pudiera usar la roca para partir los huesos de su brazo, tambi�n podr�a amput�rselo usando la navaja como un bistur�.

Convertida en una exitosa pel�cula dirigida por el oscarizado Danny Boyle y protagonizada por James Franco, 127 Horas es la historia real y estremecedora de una asombrosa haza�a de supervivencia, narrada con el pulso de un thriller psicol�gico, as� como un testimonio de primera mano de los extremos a los que un hombre puede llegar para salvar su propia vida.

About the Author

Aron Ralston, a native of the Midwest, retired from a career as a mechanical engineer at age twenty-six before moving to Aspen, Colorado. Since his accident, he has completed his unprecedented project to climb the fifty-nine Colorado peaks of more than 14,000 feet, alone, in winter. His first book, "Between a Rock and a Hard Place", was a "New York Times" bestseller and was adapted into the major motion picture "127 Hours" by Danny Boyle. Today, as a father of an infant daughter and four-year-old son, Aron lives in Boulder, Colorado. He continues to travel the world for both adventure and to share his story.
