What a gift!

Five year old Rae Hansen invites Richard Bach to her birthday party. The immortal aviator will prove her with a book that, for those who care, even at great distance, There's No Such Place As Far Away.

An extremely short story with a powerful message on love and spirituality. It was good, but still nothing remotely close to his masterpiece Jonathan Livingston Seagull.

-----------------------------------------------
PERSONAL NOTE :
[1979] [48p] [Fiction] [2.5] [Not Recommendable]
-----------------------------------------------

★★★★� Jonathan Livingston Seagull
★★★☆� There's No Such Place As Far Away [2.5]
★★★☆� Out of My Mind: The Discovery of Saunders-Vixen [2.5]

-----------------------------------------------

Que regalo!

Rae Hansen de cinco años invita Richard Bach a su fiesta de cumpleaños. El inmortal aviador le probará con un libro que, para aquellos que quieren, incluso a grandes distancias, No Existe Ningún Lugar Demasiado Lejos.

Un extremadamente corto cuento con un poderoso mensaje sobre el amor y la espititualidad. Estuvo bien, pero nada ni remotamente cerca a su obra maestra Juan Salvador Gaviota.

NOTA PERSONAL :

Most people found it much more than good! I don't know, maybe it just wasn't my day xD. Thank you Tina!


Rosh (Off GR duty for a fortnight!) Mention 'spirituality' in a review and it automatically sends the book/story into the 'Not Readable' category for me. :D Glad it was still good for you, Feddie! Nice concise review! :)

I feel the same when I hear 'poetry', or 'quantum physics'. Thank you Rosh !
