Jonathan Livingston Seagull

Jonathan Livingston Seagull, the most talked about, inspirational story of our time, tells the life of a bird who is determined not to be ordinary. This modern classic bestseller, published with a beautiful new cover, is the story of people who want to follow their dreams and make their own rules, and has inspired people for decades.
"Most gulls don't bother to learn more than the simplest facts of flight—how to get from shore to food and back again," writes author Richard Bach in this allegory about a unique bird named Jonathan Livingston Seagull. "For most gulls, it is not flying that matters, but eating. For this gull, however, it was not eating that mattered, but flight itself." Flight is, in fact, the metaphor that makes this story so meaningful. This modern classic bestseller is a fable about seeking high purpose in life, even if your flock, tribe, or neighborhood finds your ambition threatening (at one point our beloved seagull is exiled from his own flock).
Without compromising his high vision, Jonathan learns the importance of love and kindness and receives the ultimate reward - transcendence. The ethereal illustrations by Russell Munson are simply the right illustrations for this classic work of spirituality that has inspired thousands of readers to follow their own path in life and fulfill their true purpose.

The new enriched edition of a classic book with the fourth part of Jonathan Livingston Seagull that the author had kept in a drawer for years.
