Symbolisch verhaal over een zeemeeuw in wiens gedachten en levenswijze de auteur zich tracht te verplaatsen.

In Richard Bach's best-selling book Illusions, the mysterious hero Donald Shimoda seems to carry the keys to the universe with him as he barnstorms the Midwest in a Travel Air biplane. Shimoda's secret is a small book, bound in what appears to be suede, called the Messiah's Handbook. This slim volume, which the hero frequently quotes, is said to contain "whatever you need to know." All Shimoda has to do is hold a question in his mind, close his eyes, open the book at random, open his eyes-- and the answer is there. Here, at last, is the "lost book" from Illusions--the Messiah's Handbook. Within these pages, you will find the answers to all your most important questions as well as answers to questions that you may have never thought to ask--until now.

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...
