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.
Zabibah and the King is a novel published in 2000. The CIA believes that he wrote the novel though he could have been assisted by ghost writer. It is tells the story of a powerful ruler in medieval Iraq who fell in love with a common girl known as Zabibah.
Zabibah is married to a rapist and cruel husband. The setting is Tikrit somewhere in the 7th or 8th century. Saddam was interestingly born in Tikrit. A new edition of the book was released in 2004, having been edited by Lawrence Robert. There was a rumor that the movie where Sacha Baron Cohen starred was adapted from this story but it turned out not to be true.
The 713 pages novel entitle The Fortified Castle captured the allegory of Iraq as a nation. It hit the shelves in 2001 and features a hero of the famous Iraq-Iran War. The hero plans to marry a Kurdish girl, but there are delays to the ceremony. The three main characters in the story are two brothers, Sabah and Mahmud and a lady called Shatrin. The brothers come from a farming family living on the banks of Tigris River. Shatrin is the third character, a lady who hails from Suleimaniya.
The three characters in The Fortified Castle are attending the same University of Baghdad. Sabah is an accomplished hero in the Iraq-Iran war. He got wounded in the war and ends up as a war captive. He manages to escape and take a few of his friends into freedom.
The Fortified Castle rallies Iraqis into uniting as a nation to safeguard gains made during war. This call is captured in the assertion by the mother of Sabah who is fighting off pressure to share property. In her opinion, she cannot divide the property since it is too valuable to be assigned monetary value. The property should only go to individuals who gave their blood in war. He also wrote a book by the name Men and the City but it did not receive as much attention.
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.
Begone Demons was again published by Tokuma Shoten Publishing in Japan, Tokyo in 2006. Eight thousand copies were printed under the title Devils Dance. The Turkish translation was done by Humam Khalil. In Jordan, Raghad Hussein attempted to publish it by printing a hundred thousand copies. The government stopped the publication. It has since not be published or distributed in any other language.
