Meet Anant. A successful but burnt-out corporate analyst whose everyday life is safely measured in spreadsheets, predictable routines, and emotional distance.
When a mandatory assignment sends him to the remote, mist-shrouded mountains of Arunachal Pradesh, Anant assumes it’s just another corporate hurdle. But the corporate ladder means nothing in the wild. A routine drive turns into a nightmare when his vehicle is ambushed by the ruthless timber mafia and forced off a treacherous cliff.
Stranded in an unforgiving primal jungle with no network and a wounded driver, Anant's carefully calculated world shatters. Stripped of his corporate armor, he must survive both the brutal physical elements and his own inner demons. Guided by the enigmatic monk Bhairav through deeply mystical meditations, Anant undergoes a profound physical and spiritual awakening. Meanwhile, Meera, the only genuine connection he left behind, begins a desperate search to find him.
Will Anant find his way back to the comfortable city he knows, or will the ancient forests rewrite his destiny?
In this gripping tale of survival and self-discovery, meet Anant, a man whose life can no longer be measured, only lived.

SANJOY BANERJEE
Sanjoy Banerjee is a writer and analyst by profession who has long been fascinated by the intersection of modern ambition and ancient stillness. Drawing inspiration from the profound contrasts between sterile cityscapes and the untamed wilderness, his writing explores the universal themes of burnout, transformation, and the relentless human search for authentic meaning.
When he is not navigating the complexities of data, he spends his time reflecting on the deeper philosophical questions that define our existence. In Quest - The Awakening is his debut novel, born from a desire to strip away societal expectations and examine what happens when a person is forced to truly face themselves.
Sanjoy currently has lived memories across multiple cities and continues to explore the restless journeys of the human spirit.
