Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. Neuware - What does a life cost, and where does it go while we are busy trying to hold it together On the Edge of Days is a reflective, deeply human book about the lives we build, the pressures we accept, and the moments that quietly ask us to pay attention before it is too late. Set during a family gathering in the south of France, it follows an ageing former offshore professional as he looks back on work, fear, love, risk, burnout, safety, regret and the small choices that shape a life. Across one long afternoon and evening, he speaks honestly with the people closest to him about what he got wrong, what he nearly lost, and what may still be worth protecting. This is not a book of neat answers or easy slogans. It is a quiet, candid conversation about the attention we give away, the systems that shape us, the bodies that keep score, and the possibility of returning to what matters while there is still time. For anyone who has ever felt overworked, distracted, needed, frightened, or slightly absent from their own life, this book offers a pause. Perhaps that is where change begins.…
