Product Description

Amazon.co.uk Review

Best-selling author Richard Bach explores the meaning of fate and soul mates in this modern-day fairy tale 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). Bach explains that lovers don't have to stay married forever in order 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

5.0 out of 5 stars An unforgettable read., 18 Nov 2000
I read this book 5 or 6 years ago when I was working on a Kibbutz. We didn't have many books available to us and so everytime a book became free to read there was a real fight for it. I won once!! and this was my prize. It's a book that I've never forgotten and contains lessons and guidelines for all of us regarding relationships. The underlying message is that although we all have an idea of what our "perfect" partner might be, we shouldn't discard those who don't match this, as by doing this we may have missed out on someone who could have been sooo good for us. A quote from the book that I think is so true goes something like this " if our perfect soulmate is someone who meets all of our needs all of the time, and if variety is one of those needs, then no one person can be our perfect soulmate..."- or something very similar to that. It's a book that make you think, makes you look at the world around you, your relationships, friendships etc...and analyse them. I loved it and I hope you will too!

5.0 out of 5 stars Amazingly involving read., 3 Aug 2002
'The Bridge Across Forever' follows on from Richard Bach's other book 'Illusions, or the Adventures of a Reluctant Messiah' However, it is not necessary to have read this book to understand the Bridge Across Forever.
An amazingly simple yet amazingly complex book of love, hope and fear in the modern day. Not a slushy romance book, but a classic and sharp edged novel where you can completely loose yourself in the characters. There were times when I actually found myself shouting at the characters in the book as I read because I got so involved!
I definitely recommend this book to both romance lovers and those who love a good story.
