This review is from: Ascent of Mount Fuji (Paperback)
Aitmatov's "Ascent of Mount Fuji" is one of the few pieces of fiction dealing with Central Asia. Unfortunataly, it is not that great. In fact, it's slow and not very enlightening at all. The premise is that four friends, and their significant others meet for a "class reunion" on the summitt of a Central Asian mountain that they nicknamed "Mount Fuji". Supposedly, a Buddhist is supposed to climb that mountain, and give a defense of the wrongs done in life. So, we learn that there is guilt dealing with the disgrace of a fifth friend. Later, the friends's actions cause a death, and they have to deal with that too.
