The Stargoose Robert Siegel

George MacWhirtle Fleck's life is fairly ordinary until he falls off a roof. Suddenly, his childhood dreams of his body in flight come rushing back to him in a conscious reawakening of his belief in his own latent power. Despite therapy and the frustration of his wife, George cannot be dissuaded from his growing obsession to fly-and the lines between his dream life and his waking life begin to blur. One night, the "lightness" finally manifests and George's dreams come to fruition. He begins a secret life of developing his flying skills, and when his wife leaves on a long trip, George's adventures take him to places he has never seen, and expose him to danger, challenges, and a growing self-awareness that there is more to life than he has ever known, but only if he only practices what he believes. A talking crow opens the way for George to travel the world, and then, he meets a mythical stargoose that takes him beyond his wildest dreams into a realm of breathtaking wonder. If you've ever had a flying dream. . .
