Críticas:
"You gaze entranced as his destiny unfolds...Vann pulls off the most gripping passage of sea-catastrophe writing I have read outside Conrad, a chest-tightening, concretely detailed, cold, sickening and cumulatively desperate depiction of life turning murderous." (Spectator)
"At once memoir, confession, travel book and thriller, David Vann’s A Mile Down is so vivid and intense you will dread to see it end.... The book is a testimony of passion and courage in deadly storms and scarier calms, of a man wrestling with his ghosts and gifts in the very shadow of paradise." (Robert Morgan, author of Gap Creek and Brave Enemies)
"Vann brings his undoubted storytelling skill to his own experiences...unflinching honesty...a terrific piece of writing from a brave and talented author." (Big Issue)
"An antidote to the usual run of escape-to-the-sun memoirs." (Financial Times)
"Rarely has a memoir combined such raw self-exposure with such ultimately consoling insight." (New Statesman)

David Vann has loved boats all his life. So when his academic career seems to be stuck in the doldrums, he leaps at the opportunity to start an educational charter business, teaching creative writing workshops aboard a sailboat. But a trip to Turkey seems him dreaming bigger - and before he knows it, he is at the helm of his own ninety-foot boat, running charters along the Turkish coast.
And here his troubles begin. Sinking deep into debt, and encountering everything from a lost rudder to freak storms, Vann is on the verge of losing everything - including his life.
Part high-seas adventure, part journey of self-discovery, A Mile Down is a gripping and unforgettable story of struggle and redemption, by a writer at the top of his game.. NOTA: El libro no está en español, sino en inglés.
