Foreword by Shirley Maclaine.
THE SYLVIA BROWNE STORY is the intimate, first-person, unapologetic, no-holds-barred story behind the story that Sylvia, at the age of 72, is finally ready to tell.
Adventures of a Psychic, Sylvia's earlier memoir, was a polite introduction to her readers, written in the third person, factual but cautious, fascinating but as inherently private as Sylvia herself was all those years ago. THE SYLVIA BROWNE STORY not only picks up where Adventures of a Psychic left off twenty years ago, it reaches deep beneath the surface of Sylvia's life, then and now, to candidly discuss details of her professional and personal experiences that she's never revealed in public.
In Psychic, Sylvia will reveal the little known truths behind her three failed marriages, including the physical abuse, bankruptcy and legal troubles. While the press had a field day writing about it at the time, Sylvia remained quiet...until now. Sylvia will discuss her painful transitions and the financial and emotional damage inflicted by her husbands. And as an almost parenthetical lesson for all of us in forgiveness and compassion, she'll describe the experience of moving husband Dal Brown back into her house to take care of him when she learned that he was alone and in failing health.
Then there are Sylvia's own physical challenges, from a series of painful hip surgeries to her relatively recent discovery that she'd suddenly gone blind in one eye, so that, at the age of 72, when she'd concluded that a limping, one-eyed woman was done when it came to romance, no one was more shocked than she when the real Mr. Right finally, impossibly showed up.
