Review of Man Mission
[Following is a volunteer review of "Man Mission" by Eytan Uliel.]
Man Mission by Eytan Uliel is a story of four young men and their dream of embarking on adventurous trips together. This book begins by introducing how a friendship between four young men came to be, their experiences after graduating college and launching into their different career paths. They, however, remembered their college dream of adventures and began a yearly trip filled with physically challenging activities in different climes all around the world. These trips became a tradition named ‘Man Mission.’ Each ‘Man Mission’ met these men at different phases in life and served as an escape from their daily routines and a place of clarity. This book gives a glimpse into the life of men and how they deal with life challenges. It focuses on the vulnerability that men try to mask, but which should not be a thing a shame. The book emphasizes youthfulness, adventurers, courage, making mistakes and redemption. Love and family are also major concepts in this book as the friendship between four men grew into a brotherhood, and each of these men grew to have families of their own.
I like the narration style of this book as it divides the book into interesting chapters taking readers on a journey through each of the fifteen trips the characters embark on. The book balances out fun, adventure and life drama to fully picture humans' complex lives. I also like the book's focus on the male gender, from being young college students to working professionals to husbands and fathers and through the complications of a mid-life crisis. I also like the graphical illustration with maps of the ‘Man Mission’ as it helps readers’ imaginations to follow the characters through their adventures.
This book is voluminous with several adventures and plot twists, but the characterization and broad three parts division makes it an easy read. The choice of words may, however, be complex for a person who does not have a good knowledge of the English language. Aside from this, I do not find another negative aspect to the book.
I rate this book 4 out of 4 stars. This is because the book seeks to pass a powerful message that life is not always perfect and the male gender should not put themselves under the pressure of perfection. The book emphasizes strength in being vulnerable sometimes and finding redemption. I also did not notice any grammatical errors while reading the book.
I recommend this book to readers who enjoy life experiences and adventurous stories. Men who find themselves sucked under societal expectations will find this book very relatable. This book is suitable for readers of all or no religious faith or beliefs.
