Product Details

Product Description

From Amazon.com

Bestselling author Richard Bach explores the meaning of fate and soul mates in this modern-day fairytale based on his real-life relationship with actor Leslie Parrish. "This is a story about a knight who was dying, and the princess who saved his life," Bach writes in his opening greeting. "It's a story about beauty and beasts and spells and fortresses, about death-powers that seem and life-powers that are." Yes, it is all that, and more. On the earthly plane this is about the riveting love affair between two fully human people who are willing to explore time travel and other dimensions together even as they grapple with the earthly struggles of intimacy, commitment, smothering, and whose turn it is to cook. Their love affair and happy ending inspired many enthusiastic fans. Years later, some of these fans were devastated to discover that this match made in heaven didn't manage to stick (the couple are no longer together). But in an Amazon interview, Bach explains that lovers don't have to stay married forever to be lifetime soul mates. Read this as a lesson about love's enchantments and possibilities, but don't count on this book to keep you and your mate on the bridge across forever. --Gail Hudson --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.


Product Description

More than one year on the New York Times bestseller list! Richard Bach's timeless and uplifting classic of hope and love

"We're the bridge across forever, arching above the sea, adventuring for our pleasure, living mysteries for the fun of it, choosing disasters triumphs challenges impossible odds, testing ourselves over and again, learning love and love and love!"

"The opposite of loneliness, it's not togetherness. It is intimacy."

"Look in a mirror and one thing's sure: what we see is not who we are."

"Next to God, love is the word most mangled in every language. The highest form of regard between two people is friendship, and when love enters, friendship dies."

"There are no mistakes. The events we bring upon ourselves, no matter how unpleasant, are necessary in order to learn what we need to learn; whatever steps we take, they're necessary to reach the places we've chosen to go."

5.0 out of 5 stars From a 14 yr old girls point of view at the age of 36, May 28 2008
By KindraWolf "Meemoe" (Toronto, Ontario CANADA) - See all my reviews
I first read this book when I was fourteen. What a tender, influential time of life. And I am so grateful to Richard Bach for writing this book that played a hand in my influence. This book opened a point of view in my life that was not taught to me by my parents or from my newly dating friends. The confusion I felt then about love and all it encompassed was pasted together and has held ever since. Now at thirty-six I am still a believer of his words (regardless of his divorce). In that moment he felt what he felt and fortunately he captured it all in this book for the rest of us to read. Both of the 'me's' that read this great novel appreciate it for what it is. Pure and simple.

3.0 out of 5 stars Waiting for your soulmate, Dec 30 2006
By Mundoo (Hindmarsh Island, Australia) - See all my reviews
I kept waiting for Richard to meet his soulmate. The concept of a soulmate is often over-rated and most of us settle in the end for a comfortable life and existence with some-one who we have shared interests. This was a comfortable book to read and didn't really hold any surprises.

This is the sort of novel Richard Rorty might write if he weren't so bright; for Bach adumbrates, in popular form, some of the same romantic polytheism, trendy Prometheanism,... Read more

2.0 out of 5 stars Ironic
I liked this book when I first read it, though I find it ironic that Mr. Bach is divorced from the wife he wrote this book about.

5.0 out of 5 stars Yes... but Richard and Leslie got divorced
I loved this book as well as "One" and they had inspired me for a long time. Then I leant that Richard Bach actually divorced Leslie and now has a new young wife. Read more
