About DUBAI

Dubai was the greatest bet in human history. For fifty years, it won. Then came March 2026. As regional war closes the Strait of Hormuz, Dubai’s economy freezes in the space of a single morning. Through three interconnected lives — an Emirati valuation analyst, a British-Indian hotel director, and a Keralite construction foreman — *Dubai: The Fall* examines financial illusion, migration, labour, class, and survival inside a city built on borrowed permanence. A literary crisis novel about money, belonging, and systemic fragility, it treats Dubai not as spectacle, but as serious literary territory.
