The Blackberry Tea Club: Women in Their Glory Years.

I bought this book and read it in one weekend. Published by Thriftbooks. I have re-read it a few times now. The stories are inspiring, sweet, tender and beautiful. It's a good book for women "of a certain age". Focus is on the joy in life. I could not put it down and raced through it in two days! I then began to read it again.

Excellent women are women that men take for granted

Excellent women are women that men take for granted. In a parish, they are there to help make the tea, arrange flowers in the church and provide companionship for the more boring members of the congregation with whom the priests can’t be bothered. They conceal their sexual needs, and consider it somehow unpleasant to let them show. After fifty years of social change, there are still ‘Barbara Pym’ characters to be met in real life, people trying to maintain a bit of dignity in the midst of humdrum lives, and deriving harmless amusement from the foibles of others, and from trivia-imagining the lives, for example, of those who place small ads in the Church Times.

Shop with confidence. The Blackberry Mouse (Embossed Books) By Matthew Grimsdale.

Mid-life crisis is not a crisis-it is a passage into joy. This was the essential truth discovered by the four women of a certain age, founding members of the Blackberry Tea Club, which began as late-night conversations while sipping blackberry tea with a little kick added. Those conversations about children, men, jobs, weight, clothes, food, travel, gossip, politics, medicine, healing, spirituality, adventure, and books grew slowly, beautifully into the Blackberry Tea Club and the discovery of the Glory Years.The Blackberry Tea Club weaves together essays, stories, and poetry, celebrating mid-life in all its silliness, sorrow, and glory. Bottom line: middle age is much more than menopause. These are the Glory Years for women, years that bring about the expansion and reorganizing of the mind, heart, and spirit, and the birthing of a larger self of immense compassion, intellect, will, spirit, love, and capability.Divided into five parts, each one explores different themes:* Seeing mid-life crisis as an adamant search for joy* Discovering opportunities for women to appreciate their bodies* Exploring multiple facets of love* Letting go of the bad stuff to relish "what light there is"The Blackberry Tea Club offers stories of adventure, food, spirit, and the community of women in their Glory Years.

Eigeni

I ordered this book on the recommendation of a friend. I could not put it down and raced through it in two days! I then began to read it again. This time I made myself read it slowly and reflectively and savored the poetry and wisdom of each story.

I now keep the book within reach on my desk. When I feel overwhelmed with work and the mundane details of life, I look at the cover and smile. The joyous abandon of the women on the cover reminds me to take a break and play with friends. When I feel unappreciated and tense, I randomly read a highlighted section. I always take away a bit of lyric wisdom that never fails to brighten my spirits.

Thank you, Barbara, for sharing your hard-earned wisdom and the secrets of the Blackberry Tea Club!

Steel balls

This book has great insight and put into words the many complicated feelings, emotional, social, and physical, that women gaining the substance of age experience. Reading it provided me with a relaxing feeling of inner peace and a stronger desire to go on becoming the woman I am to be in the best part of my life. Worth reading and sharing with other women friends and daughters.

This book was chosen for my book club by someone who thought it might be fun to read about other women of a certain age. There were several short vignettes in the book we enjoyed, but it was mainly a book of lists about "glory year" women, occasionally insightful, but usually just dull. I was disappointed not to hear more about her relationships with the other women. In discussing the book, we finally had to limit our discussion to things we liked about the book, otherwise we would have spent the evening complaining.

Great book and received in good condition

Surprisingly insightful, filled with poetic paragraphs of lyrical adventure and laughter. Fun, frivolous and fateful... all magically and effortlessly woven together. Herrick writes a beautiful story of life.

Terrible writing and editing ugh!

Read this for a book club. Not too bad, but would not read it again. The recipes in it were good.

This book is poorly organized and suffers from a lack of proper editing. It's a ra-ra book for women in their 50's, but the friendship adventures are fairly boring. Throughout the book, there are poetry passages....actually some of the best writing. Otherwise, it's a badly written composition of disconnected stream-of-conscienceness experiences. It contains many, very lengthy boring descriptions that should have been replaced by more interesting dialog. Only at the end do you find out that the author had a difficult life and survived through family love and friendship.....Two very important messages for which you only had to read one or two chapters, not the entire confusing, boring book! It's hard to believe that anyone would have spent any money to publish this book! It needs so much work!!!!!
