Il y a Beyrouth la ville. Des quartiers à découvrir, des quartiers à vivre, des images à saisir et des mots à écrire. Il y a Beyrouth les rencontres. Des sourires francs, une gentillesse innée, une hospitalité spontanée, quelque inquiétude aussi parfois. Il y a Beyrouth l’histoire. Des millénaires à portée de vue, qui sont là un peu partout, au-dessus et en dessous des rues et des ruelles. Il y a Beyrouth les histoires. De petites anecdotes qui émaillent le quotidien, qui font l’esprit et l’âme de la ville. Il y a Beyrouth les traditions. Celles dont on parle avec émotion. Celles qui sont encore préservées. Dans la lumière du jour, Beyrouth se dévoile dans ses réalités, multiples et indissociables.

Zeina Abirached, author of the award-winning graphic novel A Game for Swallows, returns with a powerful collection of wartime memories. Abirached was born in Lebanon in 1981. She grew up in Beirut as fighting between Christians and Muslims divided the city streets. Follow her past cars riddled with bullet holes, into taxi cabs that travel where buses refuse to go, and on outings to collect shrapnel from the sidewalk. With striking black-and-white artwork, Abirached recalls the details of ordinary life inside a war zone.

World Literature Today: Notable Translation of the Year PopMatters: Best Book of the Year Told in elegant, evocative prose, a devastating and necessary testament to the August explosion that thoughtfully examines the crises that preceded it and its aftermath. At the start of the summer of 2020, in a Lebanon ruined by economic crisis and political corruption, in an exhausted Beirut still rising up for true democracy while the world was paralyzed by the coronavirus, Charif Majdalani set about writing a journal. He intended to bear witness to this terrible, confusing time, and perhaps endure it by putting it into words. Using small, everyday interactions—with fellow restaurant patrons, repairmen, the father of his wife’s patient, a young Syrian refugee—as openings to address larger systemic problems, he explains how events in Lebanon’s recent history led to this point. Then, on August 4, the explosion of 2,750 tons of ammonium nitrate in the port of Beirut devastated the city and the country. Majdalani’s chronicle suddenly became a record of the catastrophe, which left more than two hundred dead and thousands injured, and the massive public outcry that followed. In the midst of the senseless chaos and grief, however, he continues to find cause for hope in the kindness and resilience of those determined to stay and rebuild.

Beirut is a tour de force that takes the reader from the ancient to the modern world, offering a dazzling panorama of the city's Seleucid, Roman, Arab, Ottoman, and French incarnations. Kassir vividly describes Beirut's spectacular growth in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, concentrating on its emergence after the Second World War as a cosmopolitan capital until its near destruction during the devastating Lebanese civil war of 1975-1990. --from publisher description.

Set against the background of post-1967 Lebanon, this novel caused a sensation in the Arab world because of its frank and realistic descriptions of Lebanon's--and particularly Lebanese women's--problems. Tragedy awaits Tamina, who is drawn by the lure of the city to leave her Shia Muslim village for the university in Beirut. Injured in a student demonstration, she is rescued by a young Maronite, Hani, who speaks convincingly of the dangers of anarchy and revolution. But once recovered, she is dazzled and seduced by the revolutionary journalist Ramzi. Disillusionment follows. Tamina eventually returns to Hani, to her studies, and to her work with the poorest of Lebanese and with Palestinian refugees. The tragic climax of the book foreshadows the terrible events in Lebanon in 1975.

Beyrouth, Grand-Beyrouth. Derrière le titre pour le moins laconique de ce livre, il n'est pas seulement question de la taille de l'agglomération beyrouthine. Pour rendre compte des débats et des prises de position -implicites ou non - relatifs au développement de l'urbanisation de Beyrouth depuis le milieu du XIXe siècle, on a plus fortement mobilisé la notion de limite et celle d'étendue ; celles de territoire et d'hinterland ont aussi été mises à contribution. A travers les treize articles réunis dans ce livre, les auteurs tentent de mieux comprendre comment Beyrouth, simple port de cabotage comptant seulement quelques milliers d'habitants au milieu du XIXe siècle, en regroupe actuellement plus d'un million et s'étend sur plusieurs dizaines de kilomètres carrés. Il s'agit donc d'un travail en histoire, mais pas seulement. Après dix-sept ans d'une guerre qui l'a particulièrement touchée, la capitale libanaise est en cours de reconstruction. Au-delà de l'espace urbain, cette reconstruction s'inscrit dans des enjeux qui ne peuvent être saisis que dans une analyse des territoires de Beyrouth et du Liban qui s'étendent depuis les proches banlieues jusqu'aux confins de la plaine syrienne. Si les travaux des historiens constituent la première partie de la publication, ce sont des géographes, des anthropologues, des architectes et des urbanistes qui ont alimenté les autres. Au-delà de l'accroissement du volume des connaissances, le fait que les auteurs soient pour la plupart de jeunes chercheurs - moins marqués que leurs aînés par les difficultés d'exercice de la recherche durant la guerre - contribue aussi, à sa manière, au renouvellement des paradigmes de la recherche urbaine au Liban.
