Beschreibung

When 9/11 occurred in front of Author's eyes in New York City, like millions of others he was tormented. Looking at the burning towers with unbearable pain and agony - a simple question struck him - why on earth are we in this crossroad of civilization? Although at that point it had started as an aimless query, later after 16 years of diligent research, he crystalized his thoughts, gaining a much broader perspective and inner-wisdom. In turn, it gave birth to his Magnus Opus - this book The Autobiography of Time. 11/5/20 It's a non-fiction novel based on world history.

Autor

A 20-21st Century philosopher, writer, entrepreneur and philanthropist, Neil Ray was born in a progressive intellectual family during the turbulent 1960s in India, which later represented the new wave of modern generations of that country. Son of a legendary law book author and a well-known Judge, he grew up watching his father burning his nights away in his crammed chamber - writing with impeachable integrity almost swallowed with stacks of books from floor to roof.
Neil decided to leave his beloved City of Joy - Calcutta (now Kolkata), India, during his Bohemian mid-20s, and after a short spell in the Middle East (Bahrain) and Canada (Toronto), he settled in the United States (Michigan) - the land of the free and the home of the brave. Apart from being a poet and a painter, he is also an avid reader and traveler. Having toured over twenty-five countries thus far, he has rubbed shoulders with the hoi polloi, sampled local cuisines and always sought to understand alien cultures and values. Married to one of the most beautiful women on earth - a lady of substance, they are blessed with two lovely children, and together they enjoy the beauty of silence and some finer aspects of life.
When 9/11 happened just before Neil's eyes, like millions of others in New York City, he was tormented. The sight of the burning towers and the unbearable agony of those around, posed a simple question - why on earth are we in this crossroad of civilization? Although at that point it had begun as an aimless query, after 16 years of diligent research and after gaining a much broader perspective and inner-wisdom, he crystalized his thoughts. This gave birth to his Magnus Opus - this book 'The Autobiography of Time.'
