What's special about this book is that the cover was created using rubble from destroyed buildings in Beirut. The front cover has been finished with a structured varnish mixed with actual dust from the debris. When you hold “Stones of Beirut” in your hands, you're holding on to a small part of the city. Moreover, the stories in this book have been printed on stone paper, which isn't based on cellulose but rather on lime - a raw material often found in the region around Beirut.
Beirut's culture lies in ruins. But it is still there. And in “Stones of Beirut” it comes to life.
