This study treats the notion of the ''disguising reader''. It is a different technique of reading which requires an independent reader who rebels against the writer of the text and decides to put not only a different but also an unexpected scenario to the text. Thus, this rebellious reader employs his imagination in an usual way. Instead of reading the text through his\her original identity, and consciousness, this reader attempts to disguise a fictional character`s identity and reads the text through its consciousness and vision which the original reader has imagined and thought about earlier. Of course this technique of reading requires a reader who can lift himself\herself out of the present time and take off his\her original identity. In this study the reader could disguise the dual identity of Robert Stevenson`s Dr Jekyll in order to read Zayni Barakat by Gamal al-Ghitani.
