The mountain reflections speak of me.
“The book recounts my passion for the mountains and my encounters with wild animals. The change that the mountains invited me to make. A journey within myself to overcome my fears, such as fighting vertigo. Each time, the desire to push myself higher and higher, to overcome fear by working on my mind.” - Katia Voltolina
The Devil’s Pèca.
La ‘Pèca’ del Diavolo (The Devil's ‘Pèca’) is a journey into local traditions and secrets kept for generations, narrated with the rough but sincere voice of someone who has experienced every aspect of mountain life. A novel about men and women, challenges and hopes, and the unbreakable bond between the human soul and wild nature.
