Some lives pass through history without leaving a trace.

The Lost Voices is a work of historical fiction centered on those whose stories were never formally recorded—not because they lacked meaning, but because their lives unfolded beyond the reach of power, authorship, and recognition. In a world governed by rigid social structures and unyielding expectations, the novel follows a cast of individuals navigating the quiet, often invisible tensions of obligation, fear, and endurance.

Here, survival is rarely marked by dramatic acts, but by silence, restraint, and the careful negotiation of circumstances that offer little room for choice. Decisions are made in private spaces, in moments that will never be witnessed or celebrated, yet carry consequences that ripple through lives and generations. Each character moves within a system that both defines and confines them, where personal truth is shaped by custom, authority, and the necessity of remaining unseen.

The narrative dwells in what history leaves out: the unspoken loyalties that bind people together, the moral compromises made in the name of survival, and the interior lives that vanish between official accounts. It asks what it means to live fully in a world that refuses to remember you, and what is lost when entire voices are excluded from the record.

The Lost Voices is a restrained and deeply intimate exploration of absence and presence, of what is preserved and what is forgotten. It offers a quiet but powerful meditation on the cost of being unheard, and the enduring humanity of those who lived, chose, and endured without witness.

"Another great work by a very talented author who loves his period works and characters from his great plots. He writes with verve and intent to deliver the imagination something unexpected and greatly appreciated... Brilliant..." Gavin, Readalot Magazine reviewer
