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.

5By nikkipooh123I recently decided to break up with my boyfriend, so I’ve been a bit uneasy since then. This book help solidify this feeling I’ve always had that legitimately, everything will be ok. The world is an illusion and we really are free to live as we would like.Now my favorite book.
5By penguinpeachYour mind really has to be turned on and open to grasp this book. Very quickly has it become my favorite. As a pilot myself and very spiritual person, this book spoke to me. Definitely a 10/10, I recommend it to everyone I think will relate to it.Life changing
5By Quentin the intellectualThis story has helped me through depression, turbulent times, and just a great weekend. It challenges all of the conventional ideas in a way that is elementary but yet has different layers. Richard Bach has produced books that have helped me get to know him, create a friend almost in who he is. He is my all time favorite author and I want to thank him for these words. Thank you for writing this book and all of your works, you’ve saved my life more than once.amazing.
