As I mentioned back in July, at the conclusion of Kyla Scanlon's conversation with Ezra Klein on his podcast he asked her what books she would recommend. The first thing out of her mouth was Jonathan Livingston Seagull. I was like "what what???" Not what I would have expected.
Out of mixed delight and surprise, I secured a copy of this 70s classic from the Chapel Hill Public Library earlier this week and read through the slim tome in a couple of nights. It's not heavy going.
Rather than summarize and expound upon it at length, I will simply pass along my approval of this lovely little book, a breath of fresh air and more.
