ADAM & EVE – Psychedelic Promise 1965 London

Book 5 of 6: The Age of Wisdom

This fifth book of six is summarized as follows:

Summer 1967-1968 finds Adam and Eve at the height of their creative powers, launching underground magazine Gandalf's Thoughts from their Notting Hill flat. As their publication gains cult status, their paths diverge: Adam is seduced by commercial art success after a prestigious Mayfair exhibition, while Eve's radical feminist essay "The Female Condition" sparks national debate but alienates former allies. Their creative partnership fractures as Adam embraces mainstream recognition and Eve deepens her feminist activism. Tensions culminate at the Isle of Wight Festival, where amidst Jefferson Airplane's performance, they confront their diverging visions. In a poignant dawn conversation, they choose separation - not as an ending, but as necessary growth. Eve moves out to pursue women's liberation work, while Adam wrestles with artistic integrity. The story captures 1968's cultural crossroads, where idealism collides with reality, and two soulmates learn that sometimes love means letting each other evolve.

I do hope you enjoy this fourth instalment, and it's only $3.

The initial opening credit music which does run to approximately 2 1/2 minutes, called Electric Pulse, and prepares you for the start, synthesizer, bass and cymbals in a soul/funk form. The closing music, called Full Motion, ends the tale on a darker tone and at about 2 minutes and the same musical instruments, genre and industrial/fearful mood but with more caution added.

The book itself runs to about 16 minutes and is narrated in my own voice.

I do hope you enjoy this audiobook and let me know what you think, there are a lot more to come!
