Shocking vitriol. I can't imagine the kind of mind that could "hate" this book, but the attempt makes me shudder with disgust.
Don't reconsider A Walk in the Woods -- I read it within a few days of reading this one, and they are so dissimilar I could swear they had different authors. I agree with you that this one is, by comparison, an embarrassing relic from his youth -- his later stuff is much better.
I agree with Jerzy. A Walk in the Woods is much more refined. I read that one in about a week and hungered for more. Following with this one took several weeks and left a bad aftertaste.
