Overview

What happens in the minutes after the heart stops beating? Scientific studies suggest that the brain does not fall silent immediately. For a brief time-sometimes minutes-electrical activity may continue. Consciousness may linger. Memory may awaken. The Seven Minutes imagines what happens inside that fragile window. Told through seven unfolding minutes after the heart stops, this literary novel explores the mind as it detaches from the body and turns inward-toward memory, love, regret, and meaning. As time loosens its grip, the mind revisits moments once dismissed as ordinary: conversations never finished, apologies delayed, love expressed too quietly, choices made without knowing their weight. Each minute deepens the journey: From the first awareness of separation To the emotional inventory of a life lived To moral reckoning, forgiveness, and the possibility of return This is not a story about death. It is a story about what survives when distraction disappears. Blending introspection, human stories, and philosophical reflection, The Seven Minutes asks questions many avoid until it is too late: What moments would remain if nothing else did? Who would you think of first? What would you wish you had done differently-while there was still time? As the final minute approaches, the novel turns toward possibility. If consciousness can return, even briefly, can awareness reshape how life is lived afterward? And if it cannot-what does it mean to have truly lived? Written in lyrical, contemplative prose, The Seven Minutes is a novel for readers drawn to literary fiction that lingers long after the final page. It is an invitation to pause, to reflect, and to live with intention-before the minutes run out. Perfect for readers who enjoy: Literary and philosophical fiction Introspective novels about life and meaning Stories exploring consciousness, memory, and time Reflective, emotionally resonant storytelling Some books are read. Others are felt. The Seven Minutes is the space in between.
