Transit Beirut,
By A Customer
This review is from: Transit Beirut: New Writing and Images (Paperback)
This book is really interesting to read. Short stories from very creative writers with images of Beirut blend well together as we see Beirut in its transit stages.What caught my attention most and made me buy the book is the dark and enigmatic "HEY HANDSOME" a fanzine in images and beiruti street dialect by Nabeel Kaakoush. The story about 2 men cruising each other in some gay area. Whats appealing about the story is that the artist put you in the atmosphere of the scene as it happens. The car mirror, the cigarrette smoke.. the discreet act of the men.. the shocking ending. I was very shocked and interested in that piece, i suggest everyone check it out. In a world where homosexuality is still against the law, two men find each other for help and comfort.

GREAT BOOK!,
This review is from: Transit Beirut: New Writing and Images (Paperback)
Interesting book to look at. Love the stories about Lebanon and how Americanised its becoming lately.
Make sure to read about McDonalds, the Sandwhich and the visual diaogue by Nabeel Kaakoush If you're interested in the Middle East and loved Transit Beirut, make sure you read "From Beirut to Syria" |
