JONATHAN LIVINGSTONE SEAGULL book review

I've read that book many many times since I was little and every time that book amazes me and makes me feel so hopeful and beautiful. I think this book has many things to give each and every time you read it, just like the little prince. It is literally the first book that I decided to read after I was done with uni, and I finished it in one sitting. I highly recommend you read the book. I give it a solid 5/5 stars.

⚠️ Spoilers ahead ⚠️ (not so much but anyways)

This book is about a seagull who decides he wants more in life, other than fly just so he can eat; he was to truly learn how to fly. This whole book is about overcoming yourself and your boundaries, learning about yourself and what you can do, and embracing your differences. It is about never giving up and never fearing failure.

The way the seagull society is portrayed in the books, is the most beautiful allegory I've read in a while. It combines the society's 'norms' with what society deems as a god or a devil. The constant fight to show greatness to others while fearing for your life because you will either be idolised or be exiled.

This is not like my other reviews, it's a shorter one, mostly because I don't have many things to say about the book, because, as a book, it is so simple and yet so deep. This is why I love it so much.

“Gerçekte her birimiz, Yüce Martı düşüncesinin, sınırsız özgürlüğün ta kendisiyiz. Uçuş yetkinliği, özümüzü dile getirmeye doğru bir adımdır. Bizi sınırlayan her şeye karşı çıkmalıyız. Yüksek hız denemeleri, yavaş uçuşlar, hava akrobasisi, bunların tümünün amacı sınırları yıkmaktadır.”

Jonathan Livingston Seagull and Me

I became enamored with the book, Jonathan Livingston Seagull, by Richard Bach sometime in 1971. I was a young suburban mother of three. In the book was wisdom about living your best life that inspired me. A couple of years later my friend Karla told me she read in the newspaper that Richard Bach was going to barnstorm in Issaquah later that week at the small skyport there. We decided to take our…

What it is.

A seagull goes the beyond the hierarchical rules of his clan to become the fastest and best flying gull in the sky. His achievements see him ostracised but he uses his skills to teach other seagulls how to break free and dream big.

What rates it.

I couldn’t tell if I was being indoctrinated into the idea of Christianity or anarchism. Not sure why everyone froths this. Seems like someone took mushrooms and told other people to read it and become awakened.
