Review of Man Mission
Posted: 25 Feb 2023, 15:35
[Following is a volunteer review of "Man Mission" by Eytan Uliel.]
Man Missionis a fictional work by Eytan Uliel. This book is about four friends who are looking for meaning in life and learning how to be genuine men in their own unique ways. Themes like joy, grief, adventure, and friendship were prominent. It shows how these men embark on incredible experiences across the world, including in South Africa, New Zealand, Thailand, and other locales.
The action of novel revolves around Eytan and his friends Sam, Daniel, and Alec, who decide to establish the annual tradition of going on an adventure trip lasting a week while they are still in college. Surprisingly, the vacation lasted fifteen years. We are able to observe the world through the narrator, Eytan, and his perspective. Each year, these men go on this journey, which somehow influences their lives while also acting as a kind of atonement and healing. They engage in a variety of sports, such as riding, hiking, and kayaking. Life continues to happen with each new trip, with both its highs and lows, but can their relationship withstand the test of time?
The writer's writing style was appealing to me. As well as being intriguing and fascinating, it was rather simple to follow. That was an effective technique for discovering other cultures and individuals. A map of each of the countries visited was a good addition, too. I was able to journey with the narrator on his quest to know himself because of it, and it gave me a sense of the setting. Furthermore, I was astounded at the strong camaraderie that these four men had and the genuine concern they had for one another.
There was nothing in this book that I disliked; rather, it opened my eyes to the world of men and the hardships and challenges they encounter. Also, it illustrated how men suffer in silence because of cultural conventions that force them to bury their feelings.
I gave this book a perfect rating of 5 out of 5 stars. With the aid of this book, I was better able to understand what it takes to be a man. It also opened my eyes to the often unreasonable expectations that society has of males, as well as the need for healthier and more accurate representations of masculinity much needed in our present society. The book was exceptionally well-edited and error-free. I recommend this book to readers who enjoy both adventure and travel stories.
