Review of Man Mission
Man Mission by Eytan Uliel is a novel that tells about four friends who have a mission to explore the world every year. This novel is taken from the main character's point of view.
The main character of this novel has a best friend since college named Sam. They have the idea of taking a trip every year to a new place. They also make their own rules in this Man Mission while they are on a journey so that they are not at all disturbed by work, even family. They are also forbidden to whine, if there is one who whines then he should wear a pink bracelet. Over time they have two additional friends, namely Daniel and Alec. They have experienced a lot over the 14 years on their trip. From the start of their first trip to New Zealand to their trip to Iceland, they have gone through marriage, having children, divorce, changing jobs, and other problems. They experience the ups and downs of life together.
What I like about this book is that the characters of these four people are very strongly described by the author. I can recognize the characteristics of the main characters, Sam, Daniel, and Alec specifically. From the various events of each character and the events experienced together, the strong characteristics of each character stand out in this book. The uniqueness of the story in this novel is that in each journey there are also dramas and events in the lives of each of these characters.
There's nothing I don’t like about this book. The story flows very well, there are also a lot of dramas in it. This makes the book very interesting and difficult to put down. But if I had to give an opinion on what was lacking, I feel that the drama portion outweighed the details of the atmosphere and the places they visited. I don't feel the places they've been to are special and my knowledge of these unfamiliar places doesn't increase. It would be perfect if every place is given details about what stands out and the uniqueness of these places. But this is not something crucial in this book. Readers can still enjoy this book well.
I don’t find any grammatical errors or typos in this novel; it looks like it's been exceptionally edited. Therefore, I will give it 4 out of 4 stars. The storyline is easy to understand and the language is simple. I would recommend this novel to those who like the themes of friendship, family, journey, and manhood. This novel is suitable for those who are growing up and will face the times of marriage and other adulthood problems.
