About This Book
Beyond the Edge is a collection of the literary and visual works of Gopal Raman. It delves into far-reaching topics and in all of his work, the author tries to break apart the chains of stale words and to connect with the reader on a deeper, more direct level. In essence, his goal is to craft words and ideas that pummel through conceptions about the limits of young writers and artists. Art is a very intimate relationship between the creator and the viewer and the experience is different for every individual.
Although words are the matter of dreams and every human connection, sometimes a photo speaks a moment much better than any words could. The photographs in this book try to amaze, wonder, and to tell stories of different perspectives and different moments in time. Photography, like other visual arts, captures the true vision of what one thinks and it can ignite passions that words never could.
Beyond the Edge is the uncensored and pure thoughts of what one kid envisions, and if it can even kindle the tiniest of dreams, then it is worth all the sweat and tears.
