About this listen

Author James Hollis' eloquent reading provides the listener with an accessible and yet profound understanding of a universal condition - or what is commonly referred to as the mid-life crisis. The book shows how we may travel this Middle Passage consciously, thereby rendering our lives more meaningful and the second half of life immeasurably richer.©1993 Dr. James Hollis (P)2004 BMA Studios Psychology Psychology & Mental Health Middle Age Crisis

James Hollis again provides a super analysis on midlife. This alongside Through the Dark Wood are amazing must reads for anyone trying to get a grip on their psychological life. I too have a lost a child who died suddenly after being run over at 3 years old and his books have given me incredible solace that no grief councillor could ever provide. Thank you. And the books are read wonderfully by Dr Hollis.
