Review Quotes:
In Peak Experiences the narrator is extremely compelling, a guy we want to hike with, talk to, study literature with. He shows courage in difficult times, but is wonderfully self-deprecating. He has important things to say about serious subjects, but he's also funny. He thinks carefully about difficult issues, but is no brooder. He knows when it's time for a walk.
