Description

Beyroutes, a guide to Beirut, one of the grand capitals of the Middle East.

Beyroutes presents an exploded view of a city which lives so many double lives and figures in so many truths, myths and historical falsifications. Visiting the city with this intimate book as your guide makes you feel disoriented, appreciative, judgmental and perhaps eventually reconciliatory. Beyroutes is the field manual for 21st century urban explorer.

About the serie The Never Walk Alonely Planet
The Never Walk Alonely Planet series provides an inside-out view on the social and cultural realities of the city, with a keen eye for everyday life, private affairs, the political dimensions and spatial consequences. The guides are equally fascinating for long time residents as for first time visitors.
