Though the same can be said when Krakauer started writing this book. he didn't know who he was, and was at the same level of knowledge on Chris as we are. However, he was able to talk to the people that Chris directly affected or had a relationship with. Through this, he was able to empathize with Chris to some extent. But in the present, there are probably no more people that Chris DIRECTLY affected, and we wouldn't get a experience at the same quality as Krakauer. So, I don't think we should care as much as Krakauer did, but we can still care in the sense that we can empathize with him, see ourselves in him, or even appreciate his story.]]> 2022-03-25 03:21:57 UTC https://padlet.com/lemieef/7yqmpha6fh1nmbqy/wish/2113099906
