Things I Learned from Falling by Claire Nelson

Things I learned from Falling is promoted as a memoir by Claire Nelson, who shares how she fell over 25 feet after wandering off the trail in a deserted corner of Joshua Tree Park. The fall shattered her pelvis, rendering her immobile. She lay in a canyon for the next four days, exposed to the relentless California sun. Her rescuers had not expected to find her alive.What the publisher promotion does not say, is that Nelson didn’t tell anyone she was going hiking in the desert, and although she had her cell phone, she didn’t have a source of backup coverage. For me, the burning question was not how she survived, but why did she put herself into that predicament to begin with?Goodreads: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/56626489-things-i-learned-from-fallingConnect with Audiobook Reviews in 5:· Twitter: @janna_ca· Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/AudiobookReviewsInFiveMinutes· Audiobook Reviews in Five Minutes website: https://podcast.jannastam.com/· Goodreads: https://www.goodreads.com/jannastamAudio production by Graham StephensonEpisode music: Caprese by Blue Dot SessionsRate, review, and subscribe to this podcast on Apple, Anchor, Breaker, Google, Overcast, Pocket Casts, RadioPublic, and Spotify
