Psyche

<p>The course of true love never did run smooth as Gerry found out. In his youth he had to work his way through the cross-currents of the 1960s and 70s. In old age he's the only one left who can tell the story of a cult a voice and the patterns of love and despair that drew four people together for the rest of their lives.</p><p><br></p><p>He loves Psyche but she won't go all the way with him. He doesn't know why. He loves Bethan but she is increasingly suspicious of his entanglement with Psyche's glamorous London world so different from her Colwyn Bay background so different from Liverpool where she and Gerry are students.</p><p><br></p><p>Gerry's oldest and closest friend is Psyche's brother Tony but he is being drawn closer and closer into the distorted world of a cult.</p><p><br></p><p>Then there's George Psyche's father - but she will hardly speak to him and her brother Tony is moving out of his reach into his alternative reality. George is hospitable and kindly but a bit of a mystery.</p><p><br></p><p>What choices can Gerry make? Psyche says don't choose - just keep loving me but that means two-timing Bethan.</p><p><br></p><p>Despite Gerry's scepticism Tony can possibly help Gerry using astrology and Tarot cards - if the cult madness and the acid don't get him first.</p><p><br></p><p>This story is a fictional biography a portrait of the times -- and it is a love story not a romance. It's a story Gerry the survivor has to tell before his own life comes to an end.</p><p><br></p><p>Gerry's story involves much music - jazz opera and blues. He pays tribute to the power live performance has to lift us up. The settings include London Liverpool Honduras Colwyn Bay and Rhodes.</p><p><br></p>
