Book Reviews of Jonathan Livingston Seagull
Book Review: Boring and cliched.
Summary: 1 Stars
The first time I read this book I hated it. But, as an adolescent I assumed that I just didn't "get it" because everyone else loved it. My book group chose it last month and dutifully I read it again, hoping to understand what I didn't before. Unfortunately, now that I am older and wiser, I disliked it even more. Perhaps when viewed in its historical context, being published in the early '70s on the brink of all the self-help drivel that followed, it could be considered original or extraordinary. But to me, it was the opposite. It was as if Richard Bach was trying to incorporate every feel-good cliche and every religious idea into one marketable paperback.
If this book changed your life, I am happy that you have been helped. For me however, I prefer the writings of real philosophers. This is watered-down junk for the masses.
