About this listen

On the Verge of the Verb is an epic quest leading to a radically creative and healing celebratory surprise, culminating in the ancient cities of Hebron and Jerusalem. As Meyer retells his life stories, he works through his shadows. He shares tales of his nomadic life with co-adventurers, throughout the world. As the story unfolds, they engage luminaries and guides of humanity to dismantle the archetypal elements of patriarchal, colonial, and capitalist realities-leading to a systemic world-changing climax. The personal and global blend into one storyline in this re-envisioned, embodied version of the prophetic traditions.

Critic reviews

“Some books come from a person, and some books come through a person. The former are like dried fruit whose wisdom is preserved and always available. They have no expiration date. The latter are like fresh fruit so ripe they must be eaten or lost. Their expiration date is always Now. Gaby Meyer’s On the Verge of the Verb is the latter. Eat it Now or its Wisdom will be lost.” —Rabbi Rami Shapiro, author of Zen Mind, Jewish Mind

On the Edge of the Verb is a critical contribution to our collective imaginary. It is one of the most relevant pieces of visionary fiction at a time when our culture is bereft of alternative cosmologies and worldviews that can orient us in times of breakdown and renewal. Meyer’s life experience as an activist, musician, organizer, and sacred scribe brings to bear a kaleidoscope of possibility, hope, and presence in the midst of transition.” —Alnoor Ladha, co-founder of The Rules, Tierra Valiente, and Culture Hack Labs; co-author of Post Capitalist Philosophy: Healing wealth in the time of collapse

“From Buenos Aires to New York, Jerusalem to Portugal, Gabriel takes you on an inner and outer journey in search of the Big Vision. And in the course of his travels, life is always unfolding. Nothing is static—all is in movement, and the destination is collective liberation.” —Stephen Apkon, Co-Founder/Executive Director of Reconsider, Executive Producer of Fantastic Fungii and producer of Disturbing the Peace
