The Edge of Home: When Belonging Becomes a Journey

Home is not always a place—it is a question. The Edge of Home follows a protagonist caught between where they come from and who they are becoming.
This novel explores displacement in its many forms: geographic, emotional, and relational. Familiar surroundings begin to feel restrictive, while new spaces offer both promise and unease. The journey toward belonging unfolds through movement, memory, and self-examination.
Rather than dramatic departure, the story focuses on gradual shift. Relationships evolve, identity stretches, and the definition of home is quietly rewritten. Belonging becomes something built rather than inherited.
The narrative emphasizes internal travel as much as physical movement, revealing how leaving can sometimes be the only way to return with clarity.
Key themes explored include:
• Redefining home and belonging
• Identity shaped through transition
• Tension between roots and growth
• Emotional migration and self-discovery
• Finding place through change
The Edge of Home presents belonging as a journey without clear borders, showing how home is often found not by staying—but by learning where and how to stand.
