Book Review:
“Guts” by Gary
Paulsen
Laurel-Leaf,
Random House Inc., 2001
Paulsen’s
book “Guts” is a small collaboration (about 150 pages long, 6 chapters) of the
events and experiences that propelled him to write Hatchet and his Brian books
series. The stories range mostly from hunting mishaps and near death instances
as a pilot and bystander. These descriptions of events are very raw and blunt,
short, without extensive details. The stories are still however, shocking and
leave the reader wondering how a single person could be exposed to so much and
still rise back up alive and with little permanent damage. I have never read
any of the author’s other books, but based on his claims and the slight hints
as to what is written in some of his stories; I am interested in reading
another one of his books, for curiosity’s sake. I would not recommend this book
to people who love a good, detailed elaboration of non-fictitious experiences
of an author, nor would I recommend this book to someone much more interested
in novel-like genres (it would be a bore). This book is a simple, quick read that
one can use to simply pass the time, like a magazine, but overall it is not a
very enthralling book.
