Overview

In ""The Big People's Game"", Isaac Curgenven takes readers on an extraordinary journey through the highs and lows of his life from the 1980s to the 2000s. Raised in a family unit akin to a cult and constantly moving all over South East Queensland, Isaac's childhood was anything but stable. With raw honesty and a touch of humour, he shares the pivotal moments that shaped him, the lessons learned, and the choices that led him to draw a line in the sand to break the cycle of violence and abuse to protect his family. This memoir is a testament to resilience, personal growth, and the power of setting boundaries. Isaac's story is a compelling reminder that we are not defined by our past, but by how we rise above it. He navigates through family turmoil, health and career setbacks, and the joys and fears of becoming a parent, all while maintaining a steadfast commitment to breaking destructive cycles and building a better future. ""The Big People's Game"" is a heartfelt and inspiring read for anyone seeking to overcome adversity, make tough decisions, and find the strength to create a life filled with love, purpose, and authenticity. Join Isaac as he reflects on his life's journey, shares valuable insights, and inspires others to do the same. Content warning: contains personal accounts of emotional, physical and sexual abuse. Through a compelling blend of narrative and insight, Curgenven challenges conventional ideas about resilience, family dynamics, and breaking generational cycles. A deeply personal and thought-provoking work, The Big People's Game invites readers to reflect on the values, challenges, and choices that shape our lives, offering hope and encouragement for those striving to rise above life's adversities.

Author Information

The Big People's Game is the debut creative non-fiction story detailing Isaac's personal journey, experiences, and learnings through life. This origin story has been written as honestly and transparently as possible to provide a legacy and share his personal and family history. The more we share and open up on our personal journeys and history, the more common threads we find and connect with. Isaac wants to challenge the stereotype that kids who see domestic and family violence growing up follow in those footsteps. He can assure you, they don't. It takes hard work and sacrifice to break the cycle, but it is possible, and he wants to do what he can to ensure that every generation gets better. The 'Magnolia Place' concept connecting charity partners within shopping centres has been his proudest career achievement and positively impacted thousands of lives in the past years.
