Jonathan Livingston Seagull

Bethany Jenkins

“You know the proverb, and it's true: The gull sees farthest who flies highest. Those gulls where you came from are standing on the ground, squawking and fighting among themselves. They're a thousand miles from heaven—and you say you want to show them heaven from where they stand! Jon, they can't see their own wingtips! Stay here. Help the new gulls here, the ones who are high enough to see what you have to tell them."

Stavros Kosmas

If our friendship depends on things like space and time, then when we finally overcome space and time, we've destroyed our own brotherhood! But overcome space, and all we have left is Here. Overcome time, and all we have left is Now. And in the middle of Here and Now, don't you think that we might see each other once or twice?

Easily the best novel I’ve read so far. The writing is amazing and the metaphor’s really important and makes you think. A great starter for someone trying to get into this world, the world of fiction

Johny Tale the Second

Jonathan Livingston Seagull is an icon—a phenomenal bestseller celebrating the strength of the individual and the joy of finding one’s way. This is a story for people who follow their hearts and make their own rules...people who get special pleasure out of doing something well, even if only for themselves...people who know there's more to this living than meets the eye: they’ll be right there with Jonathan, flying higher and faster than ever they dreamed.

I get the point. The writing is fine, just didn't vibe with me.  Books like this really don't give me much pleasure in reading. Lessons are applicable, but their pungent smell makes the literature stink with forced messages, even if they are overwhelmingly good. On the bright side it was short.

Manevi değeri var. Babamdan ilk kitap hediyem. Baya mutlu etmiş, hırslandırmıştı beni çocukken

Odd book, not sure what to think of it. Nice symbolism and parallels to human life, but unremarkable

This book is super short, but it’s a really beautiful story about learning, growth, and curiosity. I wonder what it means to fly high in our world, to learn flight for its own sake. If anything, you have to be intrepid to explore, and you have to bring your knowledge to others. I think I will come back to this book when I have time,

No excuses you will definitely have time to read this book. You won't regret it.

شاید 50 سال پیش که این کتاب نوشته شده، این نصایح در خصوص «متفاوت بودن» ایده‌های نو و انقلابی‌ای بودن. ولی الان که محتوای اکثر فیلم و سریال و کتاب و موزیک‌ها همینه، دیگه خیلی در خوندن این کتاب لطفی نمی‌بینم.

A very inspiring and powerful story, with layers of meaning you can pick and choose from... Highly recommended, whatever phase of life you're in...

Amber Laha

Read like a children's book and the theme's/meanings were in my face. Too short, and boring.

I read this book as a kid but honestly as I read this time I was just confused. It seems to use mixed forms of spirituality to convey a message. Honestly even though I read this as a kid I remembered nothing from then.
