Rating: Summary: A journey- Review: Unlike so many self-help books that are preachy and tedious to read, here you are lead through a heartbreaking yet wonderful fable of the black swan. It appealed to the child in me because it was told like a children's story. If you love being led, rather than being preached at, you will love this book. It's a real treasure.
