Publisher's Synopsis
Part of Akashic's acclaimed Noir series. Beirut is a city of contradiction and paradox. It is at once urban and rural, a city of violence and forgiveness, memory and forgetfulness.This short story collection is a part of a vibrant, living recovery of Beirut, effected through the literary visions of its authors. The stories here show the vast maze of the city that strictly can't be found in tourist brochures.
