jakemcc 's review for:
The Boulder: A Philosophy for Bouldering. Francis Sanzaro
by Francis Sanzaro
I had a hard time rating this one.
I absolutely love rope climbing and definitely enjoy bouldering. I've been doing both long enough and at a high enough level that I get what Francis Sanzaro talks about in this book when talking about movement and joy and expression of the body.
I started this book over the summer and just started reading straight through. I got burned out. I had to put it down. Then I would pick it up occasionally and read another chapter. Each chapter stands on its own so I don't think anything was lost doing it this way.
I had to put it down because it was repetitive. Reading it a chapter at a time helped alleviate this.
Even within a chapter, I greatly enjoyed some paragraphs and did not enjoy others.
This book has given me ideas to think about but it also made me realize that I don't think I care about the philosophy of sports.
