Synopsis
Some histories are written.
Others are carried.
When attempts to deliver a long-guarded metal trunk falter in the years after the Second World War, its contents are left waiting — preserved rather than lost. Inside lie letters, designs, and traces of an invention conceived in secrecy and protected by silence as time moves on.
Dream in Trunk moves between centuries, tracing a hidden thread that begins in wartime Europe and quietly reaches into modern New York. As fragments of the past are uncovered, a new generation is drawn into the aftermath of choices shaped by love, survival, and the burden of unfinished work.
At its heart, this is not a story of battle, but of memory: how it is preserved, how it is misread, and how it returns when least expected. The novel blends historical fiction with intimate discovery, weaving engineering, flight, and human connection into a narrative about what we choose to carry forward.
Subtle, atmospheric, and deeply human, Dream in Trunk explores the distance between invention and legacy — and the fragile objects that bridge time.
