LONDON - TelAve -- The Door You Hold Open is a literary novel published under the pen name A. Lumen. Told through a collection of short stories, the book explores moments of leaving, emotional thresholds, and the quiet interior spaces where change begins.

Rather than offering guidance or resolution, the novel is written as a companion for readers navigating burnout, identity fatigue, or life between versions of themselves. Small, ordinary moments—a departure left unmarked, a familiar place outgrown, a life quietly stepped away from—become sites of reflection rather than transformation.

The Door You Hold Open is written for:
Readers who feel "in between" lives
