The Tilimsani House

About this book

Between walls' silence and the din of thoughts that are not ours, have you ever wondered: what if your consciousness were not yours alone? In the year 2124, where technology reached its peak and boredom became the true epidemic, humans no longer contented themselves with exchanging messages, but began trading "experiences" over dark-web networks. "Amjad," our hero drowning in his life's monotony, decides in a moment of lethal curiosity to buy a new "consciousness," only to find himself suddenly inhabiting one body with a serial killer whose deadly aura makes him tremble. Writer Nada Mohamed El-Shennawi takes us in "The Tilimsani House" into interwoven worlds; from consciousness-transfer experiments in the future, to the mysterious curses of the past dwelling in abandoned villages and houses. The book is no mere short-story collection or horror novel, but a deep dissection of the human psyche when it faces its eternal fears in modern technical garb. The work moves between victims' screams in dark alleys, and the whispers of spirits refusing to depart, posing the most important question: is technological progress the peak of civilization, or merely an elegant cover for our brutal scars that never heal? In a literary style blending cinematic suspense and philosophical depth, "The Tilimsani House" places you before your own consciousness's mirror. Are you the one pulling your life's strings, or is there another "Sheikhan" whispering in your ears? Get ready to enter the world of "the cursed pages" where the devil dwells in details, and where death is not the end of the road, but may be merely the beginning of a new experience sold to the highest bidder.
