DisconnectedPaperback, 15 February 2023

In a world that is constantly connected, what would happen if everything suddenly went dark?

Shyam is a skilled software engineer who has spent years working in the tech industry. But as the world has become more reliant on screens and devices, Shyam has found himself increasingly disconnected from the world around him. He spends his days staring at screens, creating new applications and tools that make life more efficient but also less engaging.

Then one day, everything changes. A massive power outage sweeps across the country, taking out the digital infrastructure and leaving people disconnected and disoriented. Shyam is suddenly cut off from the digital world he helped to create, and he is forced to confront the impact that screens have had on his life.

Through the blackout, Shyam begins a journey of rediscovery. He learns to reconnect with the world around him, to appreciate the simple things in life, and to find a new relationship with technology that is grounded in intention and purpose.
