    Series Book 172 - 綠蠹魚Read It!
    臺灣山岳書寫的一塊里程碑。——詹偉雄╱文化評論人若不踏上山徑,便無法真正認識臺灣。從山的視角,重新理解這座小小而多山的島。「只需抬頭,山,一直都在。」「山,並不需要我們。可我們,卻總忍不住向山走去。」臺灣不只是海島,更是山之島。群峰刻畫這座島嶼的形貌與命運。本書從南投山村的童年記憶出發,過去遙望的山陵與現在的山行交錯書寫,視角也從腳下的步伐逐漸延伸至從天空俯瞰群峰。作者以十餘年的山行為經,以島嶼的山岳為緯,在漫長的步行與凝視之中,將個人生命與山的時間、尺度彼此交織。在他的筆下,山是島嶼生成的記憶,是溪流切割出的時間,是原住民族世代生存與行走的空間,也是歷史靜默留存之地。關門古道、馬博橫斷、北大武山、玉山、南湖、奇萊、秀姑巒、雪山,不是等待征服的名峰,而是融合地質、... ...
