Sometimes, we forget that even the future has shadows.
This story was born from a question that refused to sleep:
What happens when a soul that never helped itself meets a time that never asked for permission?
It is a story of return-not to a place, but to the memory of what we once ignored.
In a world where we often complain about broken systems, failing leaders, and rusted hopes, we seldom turn inward. We forget that nations are not made of governments alone, but of individuals who rise or rest, speak or stay silent.
This book doesn't offer a solution wrapped in glittering logic.
Instead, it travels back into the cracked mud of a village forgotten by maps.
It meets a farmer's cracked hands, a child's hollow stomach, and an old man who still lights lamps at dusk, believing change might arrive-even if late.
It follows a man with a PhD in Engineering Mechanics-unemployed, uninspired, and tired of India's slow burn. But fate, or perhaps a strange kindness, sends him to a time before him.
There, amid droughts and dust, he learns what leadership meant when kings ruled, and what resilience looked like when rains forgot their way home.
The Dusk Beneath The Future is not a warning. It is a mirror.
Held to the face of the reader, it asks:
Will you wait for better tomorrows, or will you become the one who brings them?
Let dusk fall.
But before the night deepens, light a lamp.
And read.
