About this product

Product Information

50th ANNIVERSARY EDITION * With meditations on youth and age, love and marriage, peace, solitude, and contentment, here is an inimitable classic that guides us to find a space for contemplation and creativity in our own lives. " Gift from the Sea is like a shell itself in its small and perfect form ... It tells of light and life and love and the security that lies at the heart." -- New York Times Book Review Drawing inspiration from the the shells on the shore, Lindbergh's musings on the shape of a woman's life will bring new understanding to readers, male and family, at any stage of life. A mother of five and professional writer, she casts an unsentimental eye at the trappings of modern life that threaten to overwhelm us--the timesaving gadgets that complicate our lives, the overcommitments that take us from our families. With great wisdom and insight she describes the shifting shapes of relationships and marriage, presenting a vision of a life lived in enduring and evolving partnership. A groundbreaking work when it was first published, this book has retained its freshness as it has been rediscovered by generations of readers and is no less current today.

    Gift From The Sea

    I love the book itself. I read it years ago. I just expected it to be in a little better shape(jacket and highlighted on some pages with writing in the margins) but overall still a good value

  • Written for Women: Good for Anyone in a Relationship.

    This book was first loaned to me by an older gentleman who joked that it was written by a middle aged women for married women experiencing mid life crisis. In actuality this is a wonderful book for both genders, which offers golden advice on the value of solitude, the necessity of living in the moment, and the need for embracing change whether we like it or not. The first half of the book is geared more towards females, but from there on it becomes a collection of precious insights into the pains and joys of long term relationships and how to ensure they survive and flourish. I couldn't resist purchasing two copies; one for myself and one to share with others.

  • Great Book/Different Edition

    It wasn't the same edition/cover as shown here, and the jacket was ripped, but the book is amazing and worth reading over and over again.
