About This Item
Houghton Mifflin, 1997. First edition. Hardcover. Like New/Fine . 5x0x9. In eight elegant narratives exploring the experience of flying, the author relives his first solo flight, his coming to understand the laws of aviation, and his encounter with an airliner that mysteriously disappeared. A meditation on flying. It carries the reader up to the clouds, into a world governed by different laws, where as we look through the cockpit window-and into our own souls-we see painful new clarity. Whether he is reliving his first solo flight or recounting the mysterious disappearance of an airliner, del Giudice focuses on the edge of experience where a person learns to take nothing for granted.
