T.K. Kanwar is an author of political fiction from Toronto, Ontario. In recent years, he has become increasingly concerned at the overreaches of the modern left. Accordingly, his novels aim to explore the potential long-term effects that our current progressive cultural drift could have on Western civilization in the future. His latest novel, The World We Deserve, is a work of speculative dystopian fiction set in a future United States where the “Great Reset” has come to fruition and an all-encompassing progressive order has been installed throughout government and everyday life, complete with advanced surveillance, citizenship ratings, and very little remnants of traditional American culture. His previous novel, Identity Crisis, explores the effects of globalist policies on the United States and Canada, specifically in terms of mass migration and identity politics.
He graduated from the University of Toronto with a bachelor of arts in sociology and also has a master’s degree in public administration from Carleton University. He has worked in both the private and public sector, having spent many years in the media industry, as well as time with the federal government.

The World We Deserve is a work of fiction penned by author T.K. Kanwar in the dystopian, science fiction, and adventure subgenres. It is suitable for the general adult reading audience. The narrative unfolds in a dystopian mid-21st-century America, transformed by the Great Reset. Digital currency and social credit have replaced traditional systems, and citizens live in monitored pod-like apartments. The story revolves around Jack Nolan, whose grandfather, a dissident conservative, leaves him with a low citizenship rating. In this progressive utopia, traditional values, Christianity, and family have been erased. Rogue zones are the only places where remnants of the old America persist.
Author T.K. Kanwar has crafted a deeply engaging dystopian novel that makes for a riveting reading experience, immersing the reader in a chilling portrayal of a society ruled by an oppressive regime disguised as a utopia. Kanwar pens a narrative that explores the consequences of unchecked authority, loss of cultural identity, and the suppression of dissent. The attention to detail by the author really shows in the character development, dialogues, and attitudes, particularly of Jack, and this serves as a conduit for the exploration of societal decay and the yearning for something beyond the imposed order. The novel is well paced with smooth transitions between tense, thoughtful moments and sudden plot twists, prompting moments of reflection on the fragility of freedom and the dangers of erasing history and tradition. Overall, The World We Deserve serves as a cautionary tale, urging readers to contemplate the cost of relinquishing fundamental values in the pursuit of an illusory utopia, and I would certainly recommend it as a very exciting and thought-provoking novel.
