Have you ever felt that something is missing amidst the hustle and bustle of modern life? Why do achievements often feel empty, and connections feel shallow? Where can we find authentic meaning when all the grand narratives have collapsed? "At the Edge of Being: Dialogues on the Unspoken House" is an intellectual journey that dares to enter the heart of this unease. Through a series of provocative and profound dialogues, this book explores the emptiness that haunts our era-not to offer easy answers, but to ask better questions. Follow the conversations between a despairing student, a resilient artist, an executive hungry for control, and other mysterious figures grappling with meaninglessness. Witness how they question everything we take for granted: from the purpose of our work to the nature of reality itself. This book is not a guide. It is a mirror-reflecting the silence hidden behind the noise. An invitation to pause, look within, and discover a new clarity in uncertainty. If you are ready for a conversation that will change how you see the world, yourself, and your place within it, then step into the Unspoken House.
