Hindsight 2020 - …not a political satire  (Paperback, Sudip Banik)

The book is a work of fiction; a socio-political drama set in the backdrop of India's political scenario. The world is passing through a critical phase due to the pandemic Covid-19 and India is not oblivious of it. In fact, the torrid times the Indians are facing is a tad more as compared to the rest of the world, considering its huge population and the weak health infrastructure. But we are not shying away and the government with support of its citizens has taken the problem head on and giving it a tough fight. The book highlights the plight of the world and especially we Indians in this fight for survival; with some added creativity of course. The book has been conceptualized with certain fictional characters in mind who are unknown to each other before the lockdown which was called by Prime Minister Narendra Modi, but as destiny might have it, certain turn of events lead to all of the central characters coming under one roof and their life is no longer the same again. The book also conceptualizes with the plot of a covid free world and how things stand for the moment; a post pandemic environment and what we, the humans need to realize and act upon.
