An era vs the era

I saw the following:

https://blogs.timesofindia.indiatimes.com/bloody-mary/shashi-tharoors-book-an-era-of-darkness-is-robust-nationalist-polemic

Shashi Tharoor’s book ‘An Era of Darkness’ is robust nationalist polemic

Why in the title he used "an era of darkness" and not "the era of darkness"?

how does the article change the meaning of the title in the context?
