Sunset Illusions Stephen Bilunka

Sunset Illusions may be one of the most unusual stories ever told. In an expanding Universe with forward moving time, Sam Hevi had to do his job, raise his family, and maintain his dignity as a human being. These were not easy tasks in the difficult world he faced. Sam Hevi, an astronomer and leader of the freedom movement, had to try to live free within a government that didn't believe in freedom. He had to search for truth in a world driven by unquestioned belief, and he had to try to find reality in a life smothered in illusion. These were not easy tasks in the difficult world he faced. All seemed to be going about as well as could reasonably be expected until the day Sam lost his wife. It was the first blow to his world. The second came with the loss of his brother and best friend in the war. The final blow came toward the end of his life when his only son had him committed to the government's Old Folk's home, an acknowledged warehouse for senile senior citizens. In many ways, this last act was the worst blow of all because it shattered Sam's self-esteem. He was determined that this was the final intolerable indignity he would ever face. It took some planning, but Sam did make his final escape. At least, that's what he thought. After his escape, Sam woke up very cold and confused. He realized that something was not quite right. Things were the same and, yet, different at the same time. It took him awhile to find out why, but when he did, he couldn't believe it. He had awakened in a world that looked the same as before, but now the Universe was contracting and time was running backwards. That alone was a shock, especially when he discovered that time was running in reverse and he was going to have to live his life over again, only this time he had to do it backwards.
