The Fourth Reich Shilaho Wa Muteshi

The Fourth Reich is a political thriller in which a chemical attack during the Israeli-Palestine conflict in the Middle East leaves a journalist scarred to unimaginable depths. He picks a giant turtle from among the war ruins and believes this must be Adolf Hitler planning yet another Reich, The Fourth Reich. The trauma he undergoes leads to horrifying dreams and reminiscences which depict the turtles not only mating and giving rise to more rebellious turtles, but holding meetings in the depth of the night and influencing other animals to rise up against the government. The granduncle's National Intelligence Service Intercepts the manuscript of The Fourth Reich while on its way to Avon Books an American Publisher, believing that the novel is an indictment of his dictatorial regime and the historical injustices he has meted out on his countrymen. Things take an ugly turn when he orders the writer's arrest vows to stop the novel's publication, even if it means arresting all turtles in the country and torturing them into revealing their plans.
