Monika Killeen is a psychotherapist and a lifelong student of human nature, exploring the effects of life’s pangs on the psyche — its search for joy and its trauma.

Edge of Me is her third book, a work of literary non-fiction that weaves metaphysics through its narrator, an ancient witch. It's not a story of rescue but rather a lively meditation on endurance in a battle with a darker side of oneself, all while amid the frantic work of being a parent.

This whip-smart narrative is assured and always surprising, with Killeen describing the unspoken aspects of life like no other New Zealand writer.
