Review Summaries
"The author is flying his plane when suddenly "space shifted and time bent." When he lands he is in the proper location, but in the wrong time. He meets up with himself, but he is an altered person. This other self is the person he would have been had he made different choices in life. The author continues his journey by flying and landing his plane at different points and discovering the different selves he could have become – the good selves and the not-so-good selves. "
Vinland Dreamer, Resident Richard Bach Scholar
