I Was Never Going Back: A Book of Obsolescence

By Samia's .

He was good at his job. He had built a life that worked. Then, one Tuesday afternoon, he reached for a blazer he had worn a hundred times-and the person who would have put it on was no longer there.

I Was Never Going Back is not a story of burnout or recovery. It's an investigation into what happens when the selves we build to survive complete their work and release us. Through five identities-professional, ambitious, social, grieving, believing-the author traces the quiet disappearance of the person he thought he was, and discovers that the bridge didn't collapse. The person standing at one end of it had simply changed.

The second book in The Books of Becoming. For readers who refuse easy answers.
