What if identity were not a jewel hidden within, but a bridge built between?
In The City of Becoming, the Seeker steps out of the sterile solitude of the House of Being into a world alive with masks, stories, debts, and obligations. Here, recognition is currency, freedom is never free of ties, and every encounter leaves a mark. Through festivals and markets, mirrors and bridges, the Seeker discovers that to exist is to be seen - and to truly live is to see in return.
A lyrical and thought-provoking sequel to The House of Being, this book blends narrative, philosophy, and myth into a meditation on freedom, justice, and community. It will resonate with readers of Calvino, Le Guin, and Hesse - and with anyone who has ever asked: Who am I, when I am with you?
