Its a master piece!!
Different readers sure have their own interpretation of any piece of literary wrk...here is my understanding of the finest tales evr written by Richard Bach
Envious of the eagle and the other highflying birds JL tries to ape them..The question..if they can than why cant he always irks his mind...The other gulls of his clan declare him an outcaste..an outlaw only because he tries to make an effort to do somthing that he is not meant to do..Seagulls are low flying..even an effort from them to do somthing that they are not naturally mean t to do is considered outrageous.. The end ..the innocent JL is left all alone among his people. He decides to abandon them and move to an isolated place where he can practice away from the prying eyes of his peers.
The book is about his struggle ..about his bending the rules...about thinking, perceiving, dreaming and doing somthing that no one wanted..rather tolerated him to do. He dedicates his entire life..becomes old only to teach somany other young gulls the art of flying high!!
The book is pure inspiration...which made me speechless at the realization of how our lives have blended them selves so well with the society and its norms that we hav lost ourselves..forgotten our existence .....to become what we are and what the society thinks that we are supposed to be.
