Songs for gods and medals for fools

Author's name: Mohammed Al-Burmidar Publisher: Al-Shorouk for Publishing and Distribution Year of publication: 2026 Literary classification: Novel Brief about the book: In the world of journalism and politics and the lights of Cairo at night, our hero thinks he is holding the strings of the game. He knows when to stay silent, when to maneuver, and how to get out of crises like a hair from dough. His life proceeds according to a strict plan to reach the top, away from the "fools" waiting for medals. But a single midnight phone call was enough to scatter the pieces of the game completely. The sudden disappearance of "Shireen" after a night spent with her puts him in two possibilities: either he loses everything in a scandalous scandal, or he crosses all red lines to save himself. While searching for an escape, "Rabab," a night driver, appears to lead him through the back streets of the city, revealing to him another face of life... and himself. From "Al-Munira" to the corridors of newspapers, from suspicious deals to moments of human weakness, the hero fights a fierce battle, where there are no black and white... only gray areas, harsh decisions, and a major game where the survival depends on the smarter, not the more honorable.
