Jean-Philippe Soulé

“Jean-Philippe’s life is like the ultimate ultra-marathon, where hope, perseverance, and grit determine the outcome.” — Dean Karnazes, ultramarathoner and NY Times bestselling author Jean-Philippe Soulé spent his childhood in the beautiful outdoors pushing physical boundaries. He joined the French Special Forces elite mountain commandos in 1985. Later, driven by a desire for adventure and his passion for meeting diverse people, Jean-Philippe left his native France to travel the world. This quest morphed him from a starry-eyed child to a recognized explorer, but only at the cost of abandoning the conditioning of the modern world and daring to do the impossible: a lesson he hopes encourages other dreamers who refuse to listen when told “they can’t.” Today, through his Live Your Adventure memoir series, Jean-Philippe inspires people to embrace their dreams and live life to the fullest. From the award-winning author of Dancing with Death comes an epic memoir that will delight fans of The Glass Castle, Wild, and Unbroken, as well as Educated and Can’t Hurt Me. The thrilling I, Tarzan is a deep journey into the author’s innermost secrets that will have you questioning your own self-understanding and life goals.
