Publisher's Synopsis
In late 2023, Raj Kumar Tiwary, a brilliant Indian PhD student, steps into a smoky Palo Alto bar and whispers a chilling plea to Robert and Scarlet Caldwell: "Make me your slave." Driven by a 100-page diary he penned at age 10-a warped testament to 17 years of postcolonial shame and a craving for white dominance-Raj abandons Stanford for a descent into degradation. The Caldwells, a ruthless ex-Marine and his whip-wielding wife, seize his wish, chaining him in Times Square as "India's Toilet," a living latrine for two and a half years of unrelenting torment-whips, waste, and global scorn. His diary's fantasies unfold: celebrity gauntlets, a cross-country march on a dog collar, and a final, grotesque climax in 2028-the "Global Gallows," where white nations mulch him into sludge and drop it on New Delhi, collapsing India in chaos.
Yet 20 years later, in 2048, a 60-year-old man in a Sherlock Holmes coat stands at Times Square's "Raj - The Eternal American Toilet," claiming, "I am the one." Did Raj survive-his will echoing through time-or is this a new shadow of his ruin? "BENEATH WHITE BOOTS" is a dark odyssey of self-inflicted horror, racial obsession, and a legacy that defies death, leaving readers to question: Was his dream a triumph or a curse?
