    Threshold apprehension.
  

*by J***S on Reviewed in the United States on October 18, 2007*

I take that title from a Frank Black song, which I think is a pretty accurate way of describing the nervous step you take into full-fledged adulthood.  "Cabin Pressure" details Josh Wolk's step.I first took notice of Wolk through his terrific writing at "Entertainment Weekly."  He wrote day-after commentary on the "Real World" that was so gut-bustingly hilarious my friends and I used to E-mail the highlights to each other.  After a while, the writing was so good and the show so bad, we stopped watching the show and just read the wrap-ups.Wolk's best skill as a writer is his gift of observation.  Give him any scenario and he can instantly break it down, expose each player's motivation, and end it all with a hilarious analogy.He brings that keen observation to "Cabin Pressure," his tale of heading back to camp as a counselor on the brink of his wedding day.  Having remembered camp as a kind of innocent oasis, Josh wants to reexperience it one more time before he becomes, gulp, a husband and a father.Wolk fills us in on summer-camp life -- what he remembered from his day, what has changed, and what hasn't.  The best part of the book is Wolk's interaction with the kids in his cabin.  He does an amazing job of letting you know each one, whether they are charming, maddening, or depressingly and prematurely stressed-out and miserable.I don't necessarily think I bought into Josh's overall theme here -- this whole nostalgic innocence trip -- but it doesn't matter because "Cabin Pressure" is often hilarious and reading this book is like a well-spoken, really funny friend telling you his best summer-camp stories.The tone can shift from body-odor humor to some strong emotional connections with the boys, and all the while Wolk's razor-sharp observation and pitch-perfect punchlines remain.After reading Wolk in "Entertainment Weekly" all those years, and laughing my butt off, this book lives up to all of my expectations.  Funny and insightful, "Cabin Pressure" is a wonderful debut book.

I spent many summers at camp as camper and counselor.Much of Wolk's stories resonated with me.  It was an enjoyable read.

    Time machine for anyone who attended camp
  

*by R***O on Reviewed in the United States on February 10, 2015*

Very well written and a ton of fun.  Took me right back to being a young guy at camp.  You can smell the moldy backpacks when you hold the book.  Loved it.
