Review of Man Mission
"Man Mission" by Eytan Uliel, narrates the annual escapades of four close friends. Two of them initially conceived the idea during their time in school—the notion of venturing far from the pressures of daily life to a place of liberation. Years after their graduation, they finally embarked on this idea, leading to 15 years of adventures spanning continents. These journeys exposed them to diverse cultures and personality traits, creating lasting memories of their youth and freedom.
I found great pleasure in reading this book. It offered me profound insights into the essence of manhood. It emphasizes that men, too, can experience vulnerability, emotions, and moments of weakness. Societal norms often inhibit their display of such feelings. For instance, Rachel's husband possessed everything society deemed essential yet harbored exhaustion and disillusionment internally. Daniel, once the epitome of perfection, confronted the challenges that life presented. Sam yearned to reclaim his lost life, while Alex, the carefree one, was secretly envied by his friends with families who longed for a taste of his freedom.
The tale of these four friends mirrors the experiences of men worldwide, as evidenced by their shared journey. Unlike women, who readily confide in one another, men wrestle with a myriad of thoughts they seldom share, fearing vulnerability. They require support and a comforting presence, despite their reluctance to admit it. At their core, men are just like vulnerable infants in need of care. Times have evolved, and the men of today bear greater responsibilities than their predecessors, carrying numerous burdens upon their shoulders. The adventure encapsulates the actions, needs, and regrets of men.
Each chapter opens with Bible verses, which the author employs to amplify the initial quotes or words of wisdom, though not from a religious perspective. The book is exceptionally edited; there are no errors. There's nothing I dislike about the book; its storyline is exceptional and distinct.
I recommend this book to married women, men of all ages, and anyone who appreciates well-crafted literature. The book evoked emotions within me and enriched my understanding. For these reasons, I give the book five out of five stars.
