Publisher's Synopsis
"For me, retirement can be summed up in one word: FREEDOM!" As this book demonstrates, life begins when work ends! When we no longer have to account to our boss and the children have long left home, at last we are free to pursue our talents and creativity, and realise our wildest dreams. The contributors to LIFE AFTER WORK make films and administrate theatre companies; become healers, counsellors and teachers; build houses and run marathons. They also discuss the challenges of adjusting to a new lifestyle; the difficulties of living on a pension; and the experiences of solitude and loss of perceived status and responsibility. But, above all, LIFE AFTER WORK is an inspiring read - proving that these later years can be the richest, most exciting and fulfilling of all.
