Edward once walked through the world with wonder - a boy who dreamed in equations, built imaginary laboratories, and saw magic in every raindrop. But adulthood has a quiet way of dimming the light. Now he moves through life on autopilot: drained by work, haunted by routine, and slipping into a slow, invisible fading of the self.Hazel, his wife, is the warmth that anchors him. Her gentle presence, childlike humor, and fierce, fragile love are a sanctuary against the growing emptiness inside him. Yet even love cannot always silence the quiet questions that gnaw at the soul.When a work trip to Gabon, a crisis in a hospital room, and an unexpected pregnancy collide, Edward is forced to confront the truth: he is losing himself - to fear, to meaninglessness, to the quiet erosion of wonder.At Hazel’s urging, he begins to write.What follows is a journey through memory, nostalgia, panic, childhood, philosophy, and the fragile beauty of ordinary life. As he revisits the boy he once was and the dreams he abandoned, Edward must decide whether he can still return to himself - and to the life waiting patiently beside the firelight.
