## Description

An inspirational and gripping first-person account of determination, adversity and survival against the odds. 'What a story; never heard a story like that before' - Chris Evans 'Uplifting and brave' - Stylist 'A riveting account of loneliness, anxiety and survival' - Cosmopolitan 'A vibrantly physical book' - the Guardian 'Claire Nelson relives a life-changing four days' - The Times In 2018, Claire Nelson made international headlines. The relentless pace of work, social activity and striving to do more and better in the big city was frenetic and stressful. Surrounded by people, Claire was increasingly lonely - and beginning to burn out. When the anxiety she felt finally brought her to breaking point, Claire decided to take some time out and travelled half-way around the world to clear her head. What happened next, on a hike in California, was something she could never have anticipated. Things I Learned from Falling is an incredible story of courage, determination and survival against the odds. Utterly gripping and profoundly moving, this inspirational memoir reminds us all how easily life can go off course, how simply we can lose touch with the truly important and that - even when we are utterly broken - we can be made whole again.

Review: One of my top books of 2024 - This was one of my favourite reads of 2024, and I’ve bought it as a gift for 2 other people as a result. I found it very relatable as a millennial Londoner who is always dreaming of escaping the daily grind by adventuring out into nature. Nelson gets the balance right between her tense description of her near-fatal accident and survival mission and her thoughtful reflections on her life and its meaning.
Review: Wonderful story of survival - Apart from not falling down a hole - I feel seen. 👀 I found the book affecting.. it was beautifully written and very relatable. I love a good adventure story and this held my attention. I got worried about her in my daily life out in that desert in the searing heat. I've felt that heat. It was like I needed to get back to her and help her out. Mind you it took me ages to read the book so I would have been no use. I love her outlook and attitude and zest for her life. It was an inspiring story, a great pick in these strange pandemic times.

This was a truly emotional recollection of a life changing event that thankfully you survived, a great read not only about the fall but as importantly the recovery and the overwhelming message of how to manage our own demons.
