[ 5.0 stars ] "First of all, I found that the way the author pieced this book together just like a journal, written in the present tense was a good choice. This book takes the reader through a journey through the Himalayas (literally meaning snow mountain) of upwards of 20,000 feet above sea level, where he meets mysterious animals and Tibetan people. Buddhist monks, massive amounts of snow, and a will to pers ..." Courtesy by Amazon

[ 5.0 stars ] "Read this, and read it again. The language is so precise and nuanced. It was a pleasure to read. Matthiessen recounts his journey, literally and figuratively, in the most captivating way. You will feel that you have been to Tibet, and you won't want the journey to end. So re-read it. ..."
