Book Reviews of Mount Analogue
Book Review: Beginning the ascent to transcendence
Summary: 5 Stars
Ren? Daumal's visionary novel was barely begun at the time of his cruelly early death. Even so, this unfinished beginning, so rich in ideas & possibilities, is stronger than many completed works in the same vein. It may even be better for being unfinished, in that it provides just enough foundation for the imaginative reader to speculate & continue the narrative in his or her own mind. Reading it is a little like standing at the foot of an actual mountain, looking up at the clouds & mist that obscure most of it from view. Yet from time to time, the clouds & mist part for an instant, and we're provided with a tantalizing glimpse of the heights. To be read in conjunction with the author's other youthful work, "A Night of Serious Drinking" -- most highly (pun intended) recommended!
