Overview

*Don't Have a Guilty Conscience* is a collection of short stories that unsettles, challenges, and lays bare. Under the initial disclaimer-""this is just fiction and nothing more""-the book delves into some of the most persistent traits of our culture: power, hypocrisy, obedience disguised as virtue, empty militancy, forced correctness, inherited faith, normalized corruption, and the fear of thinking differently. Through standalone stories linked by a common critical thread, the author constructs fictional worlds that bear an uncanny resemblance to reality. Gods who renounce their rule to restore humanity's freedom, civilizations that become extinct because they havehuman connections replaced by technological facades, countries ravaged by systemic corruption, societies where everyone ""is right"" and no one listens, activists who end up becoming the very thing they swore to fight, systems that cover their cracks with ideological band-aids, educators who demandobedience rather than thought, childhoods shaped by multiple religions, disciples who discover that those who were supposed to guide them chose power over values, mothers caught up in stories where politics, faith, and tragedy intertwine. Each story acts as an uncomfortable mirror. Readers may laugh, feel outraged, be moved, or deny what they've read... but they're unlikely to come away unscathed. The style blends satire, dystopia, science fiction, raw realism, and philosophical reflection, using direct language free of pretension or artificial affectation. This is not a book that seeks to convince or indoctrinate. On the contrary: it makes everyone equally uncomfortable. That is why the title is no accident. If anything you read here provokes anger, rejection, or an automatic defensive reaction, perhaps the problem does not lie in the text. Don't Have a Straw Tail doesn't offer answers. It offers questions. And it reminds us, with irony and clarity, that what is truly dangerous is not making a mistake, but stopping thinking.
