Reading this book was a somewhat schizophrenic experience. Its message was profound, timely, instructive and inspiring. It's style was laborious, convoluted, and frustratingly distanced from the story's main agent--Greg Mortenson. I had hoped to use this as part of a high school curriculum, but most high school students are likely to lose patience with the book's awkward narrative style. I chose a different book for our curriculum (Sartrapi's Persepolis), but I continue to recommend and talk about this book with friends. For anyone interested in working toward peace in Central Asia, this is essential reading. The humanity, humility and intelligence it demonstrates provides a role model for America's intervention in the developing world.
