A ‘;moving memoir of son in search of his father, ‘ recounting the life of a psychologist and pacifist who died climbing New Zealand’s highest peak (Publishers Weekly). On February 1, 1960, Harry Scott, conscientious objector, psychologist, and mountaineer, was killed while climbing Mt. Cook. Thirty-five years later, his son set out to look for him. Funny, moving, and beautifully written, this is the story of a fathers absence, told partly through the rich and exciting mix of biography, autobiography, and intellectual and social history. HARRYS ABSENCE is a passionately argued book about New Zealand, addressing the distinction between nationalism and love of country. Finally, it is a recovery, from death, of reasons for living.
