## The Morning of the Mogul *A Novel of Intrigue, Betrayal, and Absurdity* **What if one ordinary morning you were dragged from your desk, stripped of your name, and informed that you were the key to a conspiracy you've never even heard of?** Bassam Bourasin is a diligent-if slightly eccentric-bank clerk from the small Tunisian town of 'Ouja. One day he is arrested without warning, rebaptised "Prisoner 1228", and confined in a sinister "State hotel" that is nothing more than a gilded jail for disgraced ministers, crooked financiers, and hardened criminals. Inside this absurd labyrinth, Vassam must fend off kitchen black-marketeers, a hulking inmate nicknamed Frankenstein, and a psychiatrist whose cure feels worse than the disease. Haunted by memories of the mother and fiancée he lost in a mysterious tragedy back home, he begins to suspect that his arrest is part of a plot reaching the highest echelons of power. Armed with nothing but wit, naivety, and a notebook, he turns reluctant secret agent, documenting every whispered password and hidden passage in search of the truth. ### Why You'll Keep Turning the Pages * Political satire meets psychological thriller, set against the backdrop of a revolution in flux. * A razor-sharp exploration of identity: when your name is stolen, who are you really?. * Dark humour worthy of Kafka or Orwell, revealing the thin line between sanity and madness. * An ever-twisting conspiracy of secret societies and "mind-hackers" where nothing-absolutely nothing-is what it seems. ### Perfect For Readers Who Enjoy ¿ Orwell's *1984* or Kafka's *The Trial* ¿ Blackly comic political intrigue ¿ Stories that question reality, destiny, and freedom-because in Bassam's world, everything is *Mektub* (pre-ordained). Will Bassam expose the truth and reclaim his life, or become just another pawn sacrificed to an invisible empire? Dive into *The Morning of the Mogul* and decide for yourself.
