The Edge of Listening: Poems of Silence, Longing, and Return

Written Debashis Dey and narrated by Stuart Griggs

Step into a world where silence speaks, memory breathes, and longing becomes poetry.

The Edge of Listening is a soul-stirring collection of contemporary poems that invites you to pause, reflect, and reconnect with the quieter rhythms of life. Written and narrated by Indian poet and storyteller Debashis Dey, this audiobook brings a lyrical voice to the themes of solitude, stillness, love, loss, healing, and the spiritual beauty of the natural world.

Divided into evocative chapters—What the Wind Remembers, Ways of Not Arriving, Before the Light Returns, and more—these poems flow like a meditative journey through the heart’s hidden chambers. With his calm, intimate narration, Dey captures the subtle ache of longing, the quiet power of presence, and the elemental connection between self and universe.

Whether you're seeking comfort in stillness, inspiration in everyday moments, or a companion on your emotional journey, this collection will resonate deeply. From dusk-lit rivers to whispered memories and the hush of wind through trees, each verse lingers like a song remembered in silence.

Perfect for listeners of spiritual poetry, reflective literature, mindfulness and meditation, and contemporary Indian voices, The Edge of Listening is not just poetry - it is presence.

Ideal for fans of: Rainer Maria Rilke, Mary Oliver, Rumi, Rabindranath Tagore, and spiritual verse.
