The Genie of Beirut - Volume1 - At God's Mercy

A Christian grocer, a Muslim grocer, a Jewish family, a Shia dry cleaner, a hotel for cabaret girls—such was the population of a small street in Beirut in 1975, just before the country was plunged into civil war. Carried by the poignant and bittersweet prose of writer Selim Nassib and the luminous illustrations of Lena Merhej, this story offers a moving account of an improbable paradise sinking into chaos.
