At the Edge of Being

By Phạm Thành Long

AT THE EDGE OF BEING
After all the motion, only stillness remains.
At the Edge of Being is a solitary meditation-neither a conventional novel nor a narrative shaped by plot. It is a quiet document of what emerges when a single entity, The Plant, is separated from its origin and placed under the subtle but relentless pressures of the world's Shaping.
The work explores what is left when every external demand has been met, exhausted, and finally released.
What remains is not the weight of the world, but a small, exact point at the center of awareness-unshared, unborrowed.
The maturity of the writing lies in its restraint.
Built on the stark clarity of Old English roots, the language is pared down to essentials, allowing each line to settle with deliberate patience. Its segmented structure invites the reader into a slower rhythm, where understanding does not arrive quickly, but naturally.
This is a book for readers who recognize that freedom often appears not through effort, but through quiet acceptance. It speaks to those who have felt the world's pressure-and discovered a stillness that does not depend on anything outside themselves.
A calm assertion of inner sovereignty, found at the very edge of existence.
