📘 About the Book
"Saddam's City" (Saddam Nagari) is a powerful political novel by Mahmoud Saeed, originally written in Arabic and translated into Bengali by Ranjan Ray, based on the English translation by Ahmad Sadri. Mahmoud Saeed, born in Iraq, presents a haunting narrative drawn from personal and collective memory during the brutal regime of Saddam Hussein.
The story revolves around a middle-class schoolteacher living in Baghdad, who is wrongfully arrested due to a case of mistaken identity. What follows is a chilling account of his ordeal in prison, exposing the violent, inhumane, and paranoid machinery of Saddam’s totalitarian state.
This novel serves as a document of lived experience and systemic oppression, giving readers a deep and disturbing look into the suffocating atmosphere of fear, torture, and control that defined Saddam-era Iraq.
Critics have likened this novel to the works of Kafka, Solzhenitsyn, and Elie Wiesel, for its raw honesty, literary depth, and moral clarity in portraying one man’s survival under tyranny.
