Doppelganger

About this book

Between the mirrors of the self and the shadows of cruelty: the journey of searching for a doppelganger. Have you ever wondered about that version dwelling within you that no one sees? The one that swallows your screams in the dead of night, grants you strength when you collapse, or perhaps leads you to a vengeance unlike your features? In the novel 'Doppelganger,' we accompany 'Ruba,' the girl raised in a house where love does not sprout, where silence is the official language and the mother's cruelty a fence depriving her of the simplest dreams of writing and music. Amid the rubble of disappointment and her brother's constant preference over her, she had only her father; that sole light who believed in her gift before her pen wrote a letter. But what happens when the light vanishes and the world becomes a forest of exploitation? When 'Salim' breaks her with his coldness and her friendship with 'Hala' turns into fuel for conflict? Here, the 'doppelganger' is born. From Ruba's depths emerges a hard copy, sharp as a knife, knowing neither mercy nor accepting fracture. The fragile girl turns into a woman wearing black and facing the world with dead gazes.
