Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

Mike Cavanagh is now in his sixties and has no idea how that happened. He lives with his wife, Julie, and two black cats in Bateman’s Bay, New South Wales, Australia. Three adult children, mostly left home, complete the extended menagerie. The house Mike and Julie live in is quirky and in need of regular maintenance, as are its owners. Mike writes poetry, plays guitar and composes music, is doing research on rock-wallabies, and spends far too much time playing computer role playing games. None of these very well, necessarily, but he does them. He thought he knew who he was until a diagnosis of Asperger’s Syndrome in his sixties gave him pause to rethink who he thought he was, and how he got here. Having no real idea how to proceed from there, he wrote a memoir. It was not the memoir he thought he was going to write. So he wrote another one, as you do. Ex-cellent!

    This follows on from A Pocket Full of Days, and is the story of Mike and Jo. If you haven't read part one you really should: both to help you understand the story and because it's a great book. I don't want to give anything away, but this is a compassionate, thoughtful, and very well written account of a couple who can't live together, but can't live apart. It also follows Mike's journey from layabout hippie to (almost) respectable working man. It's so difficult to write anything about the book without giving away the story, so I just want to say that it's a fabulous book that I really enjoyed, and you should definitely read.it.

    4.0 out of 5 stars A beautiful closure
    Reviewed in the United States on December 15, 2020
    This story followed the author and a woman he loved through emotional battles and her drug addiction. His sensitivity and consistent caring was amazing because over all the bad times, his main concern was trying to help her find a way back into a normal life. She loved him also, but she just could not change and their emotional seesaw life dealt the couple multiple blows until he had to walk away. The author tells their story with love, despite the bleak realities that shadowed their life together. As a follow up to his first book about their life, this is a beautiful closure. I recommend both books as their impact will stick around for a long while.

    An emotional and powerful memoir

    Having read Mike's other books, One of its legs are Both the Same and A Pocketful of Days Part 1, I was excited to get back to his story of life, it did not disappoint. This book follows on from A Pocket Full of Days, I advise reading this first so that you can understand Mike and Jo's story, it is a brilliant book.

    Written in Mike's honest, engaging and straight to the point writing style, I was soon back in the land of Mike and Jo, their on again off again, together but not together world. Life with Jo has never been easy, there is a bond that holds them together, a very complex and complicated relationship binding them together no matter where they are. Through deep and dark times Mike manages to hold down a fulltime, respectful and meaningful job, a far cry from his earlier hippie days. This book had it all, tears of sadness, tears of joy and unexpected happiness.

    After years of torment, there is a happy ending for Mike but you will have to read his story to find out how it comes about, no spoilers from me.

    I felt honoured to be along for the ride on this very moving, emotional and personal journey. A very moving tribute to Jo, his first wife. Thank you, Mike.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Heartbreaking and heartwarming memoir
    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on February 19, 2021

    Having read A Pocketful of Days Part 1 I knew this would not be an 'easy' read, but my goodness what a powerful tribute to Jo, Mike's first wife. What a rollercoaster of a life they had together through some incredibly challenging times. In his words ' life cuts like a razor sometimes’ The old adage ' can't live with someone, can't live without them' seems appropriate in some ways to describe their relationship. It's a testament to Mike's love, care and compassion for her when it must have been so difficult. It's beautifully written, heart-breaking, and heart-warming and so incredibly powerful. It is a book I won’t forget.
    Mike has certainly had a rather extraordinary life but is now living a much more settled and almost conventional life. You will have to read this memoir to discover how dramatically that came about.
