The Engineer

Sridhar Anbalagan is in for a rude shock when he underperforms in the most decisive year of his schooling. He is about to give up his dream of pursuing his first love, machines, when an opportunity comes his way. After initial hesitation, he embraces marine engineering. And with this starts his journey of traversing seas and oceans while working on several ships and moving towards his goal to become a chief engineer. However, as fate keeps testing him, he has to keep proving his mettle again and again.

This is the story of his grit, of how he gets up and dusts himself, and moves on every time he stumbles. This is a story of growth and perseverance in the face of loss of wealth, health, a parent, and heartbreak, which threaten to ruin his existence. He holds himself each time and stands tall in the face of adversity.

Lose yourself in the story of waves, machines, and emotions. Infused with Sridhar's spirit and never-give-up attitude, this memoir is an unforgettable portrait of an engineer who longed to succeed-and triumphed.
