Null : A Novel Of Infinity – Tanzim Rahman, Translated from Bengali by Manjira Dasgupta with Soham Guha

Sareng Sankhyak, a reluctant journalist haunted by the question of whether life is worth living, arrives to write a story about an epoch-making scientific breakthrough: a device that can make dark matter visible. But almost at once, things go wrong. A government inspector vanishes without a trace. An engineered giant with four arms guards a corridor no one is allowed to enter.

As the ship’s corridors twist between art and nightmare, Sareng—along with Britto, an oddly innocent synthetic companion—must navigate lies, half-truths, and something stranger than physics itself. Because whatever is moving in the shadows of the Ocean of Time is not just watching them. It’s learning. AND IT MAY NOT LET THEM LEAVE
