The Edge by Denis Murphy

Do you walk around with a nagging sense that something fundamental is missing from your life? You think you’re happy but deep down it feels like you’re telling yourself a lie. It feels like you have important work to do but you have no idea where this feeling is coming from.

The Edge is a book about waking up as an adult and reconnecting with that creative child your culture separated you from. It’s about undoing the lies and discovering the work you are here to do.

The book begins in Plato’s cave. Your quest is to move from the darkness of the cave, traverse the valley of resignation, and acquire the thinking tools and self-awareness to move your way into the light of the artist’s world.

Along the way, you’ll learn to reconnect with that creative child you never knew you left behind. You’ll learn what to watch out for as you walk the line and leave the valley of resignation behind you. You’ll learn who to connect with and who to avoid.

This book will show you how to practically walk the creative line in a capitalist world that doesn’t care about emotional labour. It will reacquaint you with parts of yourself that you never even knew existed and introduce you to ideas that will help unlock whole new worlds for you to explore.
