Resumen del Editor

From the author of Nothing to Declare, a new travel narrative examining healing, redemption, and what it means to be a solo woman on the road.

In the tradition of Wild by Cheryl Strayed and Eat, Pray, Love by Elizabeth Gilbert, Mary Morris turns a personal catastrophe into a rich, multilayered memoir full of personal growth, family history, and thrilling travel.

In February 2008, a casual afternoon of ice skating derailed the trip of a lifetime. Mary Morris was on the verge of a well-earned sabbatical, but instead she endured three months in a wheelchair, two surgeries, and extensive rehabilitation. On Easter Sunday, when she was supposed to be in Morocco, Morris was instead lying on the sofa reading Death in Venice, casting her eyes over these words again and again: "He would go on a journey. Not far. Not all the way to the tigers." Disaster shifted to possibility and Morris made a decision. When she was well enough to walk again (and her doctor wasn't sure she ever would), she would go "all the way to the tigers."

So begins a three-year odyssey that takes Morris to India in search of the world's most elusive apex predator. Her first lesson: don't look for a tiger because you won't find it - you look for signs of a tiger. And all unseen tigers, hiding in the bush, are referred to as "she." Morris connects deeply with these magnificent and highly endangered animals, and her weeks on tiger safari also afford a new understanding of herself.

Written in over a hundred short chapters, All the Way to the Tigers offers an elegiac, wry, and wise look at a woman on the road and the glorious, elusive creature she seeks.

Three stories

This book enter weaves three different storylines. First, is the authors childhood an earlier life. Second, is recovering from a devastating fall in 2008. Third, is her quest in India in 2011 to see a tiger in the wild. Writing is interesting and this is an easy read. Short chapters are also a plus.

Beautiful Memoir

Mary Morris knows how to weave stories together to create a richly nuanced memoir. She also did a terrific job of deepening my vague curiosity of tigers.

A lovely listen

I found this travel memoir to be interesting, imaginative and intriguing. I got very absorbed in it and was taken away. It is a journey for the author within and without. I highly recommend it.

Big build up, no finish!

I was pleasantly surprised how smoothly the book transitioned from past to near past and the narrators voice was soothing.
The story was reminiscent of reading a wordy diary of someone’s life.
Loving animals, I wanted more tiger interaction and finally getting to the tiger scene was anti- climatic.
There were several times I found the writer to give minute details about “things” that led me to expect an event hat never materialized, leaving me to wonder.... why she included that in the book.
In conclusion, I would have liked the “diary “ to peak, at some point, with lessons learned and then her AHA learning experience, finishing the book with lessons learned or something.
The summation is: the book left me wanting to retell her story with more adventure and resolution.
