The Public Telephone

By Abdel Hamid Attia

Description

Jalal Issa, a night taxi driver, is forced to cross a deserted street and hears a telephone ringing from an old booth disconnected from the network for twenty years. He lifts the receiver and hears a voice that knows his name, knows his age, knows everything about him — and tells him he will die in seven days, at three in the morning, in that very street. Jalal tries to warn the people the voice names, but they die on the very dates it speaks, despite his warnings. Then he discovers the voice is his own voice, ten years from now, and that the caller never dies — he only changes. And when the voice threatens his sister Rana, Jalal faces a single choice: to die, or to become the voice. A complete horror and thriller story in 10 chapters, with a twist ending you will never expect.
