Description: MEMOIRS. Call the Midlife is a book about reaching 50, as Chris is about to. This should be the most exciting, least depressing time of one's life, yet we are brainwashed into fearing and loathing it, worrying about our being suffocated by the so-called 'midlife crisis'. But potentially it is the Golden Age in the whole of life, when we can still physically do much of whatever takes our fancy, and some things even better than before. Mentally, we are streets ahead of where we've ever been before, as we are in terms of influence too - having the sway, knowing more people and more about these people than at any time in the past. Even the odd tinge of wisdom begins to creep in. But of course there is an issue. Even though we are fully aware of all the above, few of us have the first clue about how to go about the half-time team-talk from ourselves to ourselves.
