A Sky Without Stars

About The Book

Saad has lived alone in a farmhouse outside Karachi for two years, haunted by a childhood sin that left him broken. His only companions are nightmares, books, a red diary, nature, and a friend named Suresh. The greenery, the flowers, and the air talk to him—but rarely. Silence clings to him, haunting nights and leaving his sky starless.

Then suddenly, stars fill his sky. The hope returns. His new neighbours are purely divine. An amber-eyed girl catches his attention twice on unfamiliar paths. In the end, she becomes a part of him.

But then—what happened? Did his story end in peace, or in sorrow? Was his sky full of stars, or without stars? Only silence knows.

The novel portrays guilt without relief, solitude that crushes, love that redeems, silence that speaks, madness that reasons, and hope that flickers—but never dies.
