Summary: Pure and Simple
Review: Bach has defined the meaning of the words "pure" and "simple" in what is marketed as a childrens book. I read this book and it brought tears to my eyes. I read it to my wife and 14 tear old daughter and it held no meaning for to them. Bach has laid a foundation for thought using very simple language that grows and develops with in a mind that is open and willing to see. If you are "ground bound" with no desire to think of or acknowledge bigger things in life don't bother. If you want to feel emotion and provoke thought you must read this piece of work.

Summary: The best reading about missing
Review: Bach is not a writer: he's a pilot. But it's in this his power, because he has not to write some perfect sentences or something about, but he writes totally his essence, all the things his mind thinks with no artificious and studied language. He's great because he's immediate. This book, in its essenciality, gives us a great lesson about missing: why do you miss someone, if you could be with him/her in every moment with your mind? Missing is only an obstacle that everyone creates for himself, limiting mind abilities and the receptivity to the things you can't explain but you sure can feel...

Summary: Review of "There's No Such Place as Far Away"
Review: I read this book about 20 years ago and liked it so well that I purchased several copies and gave them to friends who were leaving Ball State University to enter careers in various places in the United States. To me this book epitomizes what it means to have a really true friend; one who is always there for you and no distance or time can separate you. I purchased it this time so I would have a copy. Richard Bach is one of my all-time favorite authors.

Summary: A wonderful affirmation of life and love!
Review: My oldest sister sent me this book for my first birthday away from home and family. I read the book and loved it, and put it away for a few years. I found the book again years later and reread it. I loved it even more. I have found that I get something different out of it with each subsequent reading. It is about life, and death, about hope and love. It is a spiritual affirmation about how we endure, and that love truly spans time and space. It is also a love story of a journey not across land and water, but of an opening of the mind to see the true essense of what it means to live and love.
As the author takes his journey of discovery, the thoughtful reader cannot help but be shaped by the beautiful words of the text. When I first received this book, I couldn't imagine what a uniquely special gift I had receive. How incredible, a book that grows with you as you journey through life!It would be a wonderful gift for someone leaving home (as I was), someone suffering from the loss of a loved one, or for someone you may not be able to see as often as you wish. It is a truly special book on spiritual growth and discovery, without including the usual character suffering that often preceeds such a transformation in thought..

Summary: Vintage Bach !
Review: None of Richard Bach's books have failed to impress me. Bach is one of those very few, who can understand his emotions and feelings clearly enough to write them on paper. A number of us go through life giving little thought to our thoughts, and Bach does excatly that. Do not be misled into thinking that this book is about him giving us advice on how to live out lives, instead its one man's journey through lives, and his attempts to convert each moment of his life to words.
