5.0 out of 5 stars A "must" read., November 1, 1999

There are certain artefacts that draw one in life - there are certain records/albums/cd's one might feel - without which a collection is incomplete. As with books, a dictionary, Shakespeare, Roget's Thesaurus and Trevanian's books are on my shelf. I only wish RW and I could have met. If perchance you read this -or know the author- tell him Thank You.[Have an Islay Malt on me!] A wonderful book. I also highly recommend Summer of Katya and the other 3 known books by Trevanian.

5.0 out of 5 stars An excellent book that changed my whole life!!!, October 11, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Four Complete Novels (The Eiger Sanction/ The Loo Sanction/ The Main/ Shibumi) (Hardcover)

My life has been devided into two parts: before and after reading the 'Shibumi'. It gave me the concept of 'overwhelming calmness' to which the development of any person must be directed. However, the 'overwhelming calmness' is not the the aim in itself, but one of the most important stages on the way of the endless development-the only worthy thing in the world.

Trevanian is his pen name and he is not who I thought he was. Great book to expand your vocab if you stop and look-up all the tuff words like DEPENDENT, and it is not what you think.
Great stories, well written, fun ride for a book that's over 30 years old.
