ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

She was 17-years-old on a Christmas Eve flight 40 years ago to join her father for Christmas when the unimaginable happened. The incredible survivor story that will soon be a major motion picture.

The Lockheed L-188A Electra, on the way from Lima to Pucallpa, flew directly into a thunderstorm. A strike of lightning left the plane incinerated and Juliane Diller (Koepcke) still strapped to her plane seat falling through the night air two miles above the Earth. Her survival is unexplainable and considered a modern day miracle. Her mother was among the 91 dead and Juliane the sole survivor. For 11 days she crawled and walked alone through the jungle, fighting for her survival again with hunger and despair her only companions as maggots ate their way into her wounds. Juliane ultimately survives and goes on to live an inspiring life as a scientist continually drawn back to the terrain that threatened to take her.

About the Author
Juliane Koepcke (Lima, Perú, 1954) es hija de dos biólogos alemanes que dedicaron su vida al estudio de la selva amazónica peruana. En 1971 sobrevivió a una tragedia aérea que dio la vuelta al mundo y en la que perdió a su madre. Hoy, convertida en bióloga, Juliane es la guardiana de Panguana, la estación biológica en la selva peruana que sus padres fundaron en 1968, y que a ella acabó por salvarle la vida. Cuarenta años después del accidente aéreo que marcaría su existencia, Koepcke publicó Cuando caí del cielo, primero en Alemania, donde se convirtió en un best seller del Spiegel, y luego en varias lenguas, cosechando un gran éxito en todas ellas. Su milagrosa historia de supervivencia deja al lector con un renovado respeto por el medio ambiente.
