Book Review of The Snow Leopard

The Snow Leopard
pindari avatar reviewed on + 38 more book reviews


I loved the beautifully written tale of adventure and exploration, I could see the sherpa's smiles, and feel the snow... it was wonderful. I didn't enjoy trying to track the expedition on the hopeless map inside the front cover - what could have been wonderful was frustrating and disappointing. I also didn't care for the extent of the authors spiritual journey. Of course one couldn't complete such a journey without much introspection, but I found the details of the various religions too extensive to follow, and my heart wasn't in it. I probably won't read this book again, but parts of it will stay with me.
