The Long Walk Down

Why We Run and How to Come Home

A Psychological Journey Through the Indie Game Firewatch

‎English | 123 pages | ISBN 978-616-629-480-4

The Long Walk Down is a philosophical memoir about the quiet courage of returning to yourself.

Arthur A. Tiger invites the reader into a meditative descent — through solitude, fatigue, and the strange peace that waits beyond exhaustion.

Blending psychology, philosophy, and poetic reflection, this book explores what it means to stop running — from pain, from love, from the noise of ambition — and to rediscover the stillness that modern life has taught us to fear.

There are no lessons here, no twelve steps to follow. Only one movement: down — into honesty, into silence, into presence.

For readers of Albert Camus, Rainer Maria Rilke, and Pema Chödrön, The Long Walk Down is a modern meditation for those who have grown tired of self-improvement and are ready to face what simply is.

A quiet book about the hardest thing: staying.
