Saddam Hussein reigned as the president of Iraq between 1979 and 2003. His twenty four year rule was ended by US forces in an invasion that led to his capture, trial, sentence to hang and execution on 30th December, 2006. The known Saddam Hussein books are four and an additional collection of poems. He never used his name as the author and instead preferred He Who Wrote It.
CIA recons that Zabibah and the King, released in 2000 was authored by Saddam with the assistance of ghost writers. The novel is set in medieval Iraq and features a commoner girl called Zabibah. She is caught in a love web between her and the king who is was a mighty ruler of old day Iraq.
Zabibah is married to a cruel husband who goes to the extent of raping her. The book is set in Tikrit, the birth town of Saddam, in the 7th or 8th century. Robert Lawrence edited the novel in 2004 in subsequent editions. Sacha Baron Cohen is said to have featured in a Hollywood adaptation of the book but the rumor was dispelled.
The Fortified Castle is one of the best allegories of Iraq as a nation and state. It comes in 713 pages and was released to the market in 2001. The hero fought in the Iraq-Iran war and is planning to marry a Kurdish girl. His plans are facing hitches from all angles. The plot is made up of three main characters, a lady called Shatrin and two brothers, Mahmud and Sabah. The two come from the western bank of Tigris River while the lady comes from Suleimaniya.
The three main actors in The Fortified Castle plot meet while attending University of Baghdad. Sabah has fought in the Iraq-Iran war, gotten wounded and captured as a war slave. His heroism lies in his escape and ability to take several of his friends during the dash to freedom.
The Fortified Castle is a depiction of Iraq. The idea fronted in the text is the value of unity. The proposal to divide the property is met with resistance by the mother of the war hero. In her assertion, the value of properties in question cannot be quantified in monetary terms. She stands by the principle that only those who fought for it with their blood should have a share. The third publication was Men and the City which did not gain much popularity.
Begone Demons is loosely translated in English to mean Get Out You Cursed. CIA presumes that its completion was a day before US invasion into Iraq. The story is laden with Zionist-Christian propaganda against Arabs and Muslims. The plot features an attack on some twin towers, a mirror of what happened on September 11th in US. The author shows a clear Muslim-Christian conflict through selective and deliberate naming of characters within the plot.
Toluma Shoten Publishing released a version of Begone Demons in 2006 in Tokyo Japan under the title Devils Dance. The Turkish translation was the work of Humam Khalil. When Raghad wanted to print and release a hundred thousand copies of the book in Jordan, the government declined. This means that the title never got to be translated or released in any other language.
