Ilusiones / Illusions: The adventures of a Reclutant Messiah

Rate this book
Por el autor de Juan Salvador Gaviota. Historia para descubrir lo m�s hondo de nosotros mismos.

En el espacio a�reo sin nubes que se extiende entre los campos de ma�z de Illinois y el azul infinito, un hombre deposita su fe en la h�lice de su biplano. Para ese piloto, la fe es tan real como un dep�sito lleno de gasolina# hasta que se encuentra con Donal Shimoda, un antiguo mec�nico que se define como un mes�as y es capaz de lograr que las penas desaparezcan y que la imaginaci�n remonte el vuelo.En Ilusiones descubrimos las verdades atemporales que dan alas a nuestras almas que la gente no necesita m�quinas voladoras para levantar el vuelo, que incluso las nubes m�s oscuras tienen un sentido cuando nos situamos por encima de ellas y que los mes�as pueden encontrarse en lugares tan insospechados como un campo de heno, un pueblo perdido en medio de la llanura o, sobre todo, en lo m�s hondo de nosotros mismos.



ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

In the cloud-washed airspace between the cornfields of Illinois and blue infinity, a man puts his faith in the propeller of his biplane. For disillusioned writer and itinerant barnstormer Richard Bach, belief is as real as a full tank of gas and sparks firing in the cylinders...until he meets Donald Shimoda--former mechanic and self-described messiah who can make wrenches fly and Richard's imagination soar....

In Illusions, the unforgettable follow-up to his phenomenal bestseller Jonathan Livingston Seagull, Richard Bach takes to the air to discover the ageless truths that give our souls wings: that people don't need airplanes to soar...that even the darkest clouds have meaning once we lift ourselves above them... and that messiahs can be found in the unlikeliest places--like hay fields, one-traffic-light midwestern towns, and most of all, deep within ourselves.
