In "Only Now," Terry Oldfield shares the stirring journey of his life, from the depths of adversity to the heights of global acclaim as a masterful musician and composer. His memoir unfurls the tapestry of a life rich with the resonance of his iconic flute playing, an art form celebrated for its profound emotional depth and healing powers. With over forty albums and numerous scores for significant film and television productions to his name, Terry's narrative is interwoven with the melodies of his achievements, yet it's the candid exploration of his personal trials—from laboring in the harsh terrains of an Australian copper mine, navigating the turmoil of two divorces, to the life-altering experience of losing an eye—that imbues his story with a raw, compelling authenticity. Beyond the recounting of his professional triumphs and personal tribulations, "Only Now" delves into the essence of Terry Oldfield's spiritual awakening and the philosophical musings that have shaped him. His story is punctuated with vibrant anecdotes featuring encounters with cultural icons such as Mick Jagger, Prince Charles, and Leonard Cohen, painting a picture of a life lived fully amidst both the glittering circles of fame and the quiet moments of introspection. At its heart, Terry's memoir is a testament to the power of living in the moment, embracing the journey of life with courage, humility, and an ever-present hope. Through the harmonious blend of music, memory, and meditation, "Only Now" resonates as a universal ode to the indomitable spirit of the human condition, inviting readers to find their own melody within its pages.
