  Hey there and welcome to the second half of my memoir. Part 2 literally picks up where Part 1 left off, so don't be alarmed by the fact that Part 2 starts at Chapter 101 because it's just a continuation of Part 1 which left off at Chapter 100. By the way, if you haven't read Part 1, there's no sense in reading Part 2. You'll notice that there is no front matter other than the Table of Contents, because I'm really treating this as one single book. Anyway, it's not too complicated. Well, get ready for a very bumpy ride indeed because where Part 1 could be characterized as a talented guy who sobers up and ends up traveling the world getting in every door he knocks on, Part 2 could be characterized as a guy hell bent on destroying himself with drugs and alcohol while living in Thailand and all the chaos that goes with it, including being jailed in Thailand 5 times. By the way, what you hear here happened exactly as is spoken.

  In 1952, Colorado businessman and amateur hypnotist Morey Bernstein put housewife Virginia Tighe of Pueblo, Colorado, in a trance using a technique called hypnotic regression. It had sparked off startling revelations about Tighe's alleged past life as a 19th-century Irishwoman, Bridey Murphy, and her rebirth in the United States 59 years later. 
  Bernstein wrote a book in 1956, The Search for Bridey Murphy, which became a New York Times best-seller, eventually being published in 30 languages in 34 countries, and was later made into a movie. In this recording you will hear one of the actual hypnotism sessions.

  Bloomer

  Carol Lefevre

  It is daunting to grow old in a time and place that does not value old people, but the age group known as Boomers should not be so easily dismissed. They marched against the Vietnam War and were the first generation to be liberated by the contraceptive pill from the fear of unwanted pregnancy. Their teenage years were fuelled by protest songs and peace-and-love idealism, and many are still engaged in forms of activism. 
   
  Framed by the turning of the seasons in her small suburban garden, Carol Lefevre's Bloomer documents the year in which she turned seventy. Memoir threads through meditations on aspects of ageing, from its hidden grief and potential for loneliness to our relationship with the past and with our own mortality. 
   
  In this gorgeous, optimistic and eloquent coming-of-old-age book, Boomers emerge as Bloomers – people not at the end of things but still on their way, ready to embrace a late-life flourishing. 
   
  'The idea at the heart of this excellent book is that growing older is an opportunity for renewal and growth. It eschews stereotypes and trite representations of positive ageing and offers us something more reflective and meaningful. Beautifully written and full of wisdom, this is a book for all ages.' PIP WILLIAMS 
   
  'Bloomer is at once a revelatory meditation on ageing and an exploration of the place and power of gardens in a richly inhabited life. For long moments, Lefevre's book, like a beloved garden, makes time slow in moments of contemplation. Bloomer is a book to be savoured.' LUCY TRELOAR 
   
  'A tender, unflinching palimpsest of the layering force of time as it flows through every cell of our being. Beautiful. Poetic. A meditation on turning grey, learning to be old and the art of embracing every age we are privileged to live. A remembrance of wonder and precious moments, this is a necessary book.' DONNA WARD
