Abstract : The objective of this paper is to attempt an analysis of the impact of power by the authorities of the Middle Eastern country which has been explained in the twin novels called Al Arabian Novel Factory and Jasmin Days written by Benyamin. Both these novels deal with the contemporary life in an unnamed Arab country in the backdrop of Arab Spring in the Middle East. Benyamin presents, in these novels, the impact of the revolutions in the Arab world, the internal conflicts of Sunni and Shia Muslims and how these issues fall apart the happy world of the people. This paper explores how the people of an unnamed Arab country lacks their representation in the politics and how democracy becomes a farce when the entire power has been vested in one person.
