Save:'Out of the Silence: After the Crash' by Mireya Soriano, Jennie Erikson, and Eduardo Strauch Urioste is a personal account of Eduardo Strauch, one of the survivors of the 1972 Andes Mountains plane crash. The book delves into the emotional and spiritual impact of hope, fear, rebirth, and love experienced by Eduardo during the 72 days on the mountain and afterwards. It narrates the story of survival, friendship, family, and faith amidst freezing temperatures, starvation, and the difficult decisions that had to be made in order to survive.
Eduardo Strauch breaks his decades-long silence to share his story after a mountain climber finds his wallet near the crash site, prompting him to reflect on the tragedy, the rescue, and how it changed his life forever. The book is split into two halves: the first half recounts the experience of the crash, while the second half explores the lessons learned, focusing on spiritual growth and the survivors' connection to each other and the mountain.
