Few mountains have been described as extensively and documented in travel literature as Rigi. Or should it be "the" Rigi? This question seems to remain unresolved even after hundreds of years. Just as each sunrise allows the "Queen of the Mountains" and the world around to shine in a new light, so do the feelings, myths, and experiences surrounding this majestic solitary peak traverse through the ages. Do we think we know everything already? It's high time for a new book about this ever-young mountain. Renowned contemporary writers, many with ties to the region, present fresh stories, essays, and poems here, offering a literary mountain hike along new paths. Among them are: Thomas Hürlimann, Max Huwyler, Gertrud Leutenegger, Klaus Merz, Martina Clavadetscher, Peter von Matt, Franz Hohler, Anton Rotzetter, John Wolf Brennan, Tony Ettlin, Marlène Wirthner-D.
