What if you could live your life over again, keeping everything you already know?
At forty-seven, Advik Mitra sits alone in a Kolkata shopping mall. Unemployed, broke, and crushed by decades of missed chances, he has already decided that tonight will be his last.
Then a stranger in a steel-blue suit offers him the impossible: send his forty-seven-year-old consciousness back into his eighteen-year-old body, carrying the full memory of every life he lives. Advik takes the deal. Armed with foreknowledge, he fights to rebuild the life that slipped through his fingers, clawing his way from the chaos of 1990s Kolkata to the promise of a new beginning in Melbourne. There he finds something he never expected: Shirin, an Iranian woman whose courage and warmth make the whole unforgiving journey feel worth it.
But the past refuses to comply. Every correction Advik makes ripples outward in ways he cannot control, and the people he loves most keep paying the price. When Shirin's life is threatened by a danger rooted in the world she fled, Advik faces a choice no amount of foreknowledge can help.
A sweeping speculative drama about love, grief, and the cost of second chances, Timeman is for those who are at their lowest point, wondering how different things might have been if they had an opportunity to undo past mistakes and regrets.
