Audiobook cover for The True True Story of Raja the Gullible (and His Mother) by Rabih Alameddine. The cover features a vintage teacup with a crack, tipped over and with a light brown liquid spilling out of it, and surrounded by a winding red ribbon. The background is a light teal color with a decorative dark teal and golden floral pattern. The text is prominently displayed in bold, dark blue letters, centered on the cover. At the top, the author's name is written in smaller black all-caps text. The title of the book is displayed in large black letters above and below the teacup. Below the title, it says "(and His Mother)" in small black letters on a golden background. On the right side, the phrase "Read by GM Hakim" is placed in black.

The True True Story of Raja the Gullible
Rabih Alameddine
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️/5

Slow initially, but then a whirlwind, carried by the witty midldle-aged gay protagonist & his no-nonsense mother w/ her connections to the generator mafia of Beirut.
