Review of Man Mission
Posted: 22 Jan 2022, 04:03
[Following is a volunteer review of "Man Mission" by Eytan Uliel.]
In a world of uncertainties, which is its reality, dreams and wishes are sometimes nothing but fantasies which can't be fulfilled, but these four men broke that rule. An imagination or idea brought up by two young men over the years, slowly turn into actualisation with two other friends joining not to long after, thereby giving birth to Man Mission, a drift to the world of adventures in order to sustain friendships.
Man Mission, the intriguing story about four men who decided to have an annual vacation going to different places like New Zealand, Thailand, Japan, Spain , and so on, going round the world and getting to discover the cultural heritage of different people. As these men grown up they faced; loneliness, sadness, financial collapse, indecisions, work problems and martial challenges leading to separation and even divorce. Their adventures soon became their places of solitude, havens, where they could escape the harsh conditions of this planet and have fun with friends, creating beautiful memories yearly.
Eytan Ulliel writes in a unique way as the events in each chapter were not arranged in a sequential order, but they were arranged harphardly, and even then it was clear which event came first or second in a chapter.
The author writes from only one character point of view referred to as I throughout the book. The characters were well developed and are related to typical men in today's world. The author describes the main character as a man who faced indecisions, loneliness, miserableness, martial problems, work stress, sadness and the fear of voicing out his feelings which created problems for him, and his friends; Alec, whose determination, preservance, endurance and a boundless energy made him regain what he had lost and pursued his dreams, Sam, whose want for stability made him stuck to his job not changing it, and Daniel who is the voice of reason, organiser and most responsible of the four friends. But despite the fact that things seem to be going well for his friends, they too encountered challenges and faced different obstacles to living a fulfilled life.
While reading, I wore a smile all the way through the book as the book is pretty hilarious. I wondered what the main character's name was, but later accepted him being unanimous as the writer's style. I also thought that the wives of these men should have a similar vacation or trip, thereby creating the Women Mission.
What I dislike about this book is that despite reading it in the recommended application, it still need some polishing as several words were blurry and a considerable amount of pages needed to be zoom in order to see it clearly.
I rate this book four out of four stars because, despite the above reasons and the fact that it has very few errors, it's hard not to fall in love with the book as it is skilfully edited and exceptionally interesting.
This book is suitable for mature audience has it contain a few mild sex scenes, the use of drugs and swear words. If you're looking for a book that has dangerous and challenging adventures, youthful thrill, a good sense of humor and a lot of lessons from the experiences of these men, then this book is your perfect choice. Also, if you don't mind the acknowledgement of God and the presence of biblical quotes, then, Man Mission is for you.
