The grudge : An inhabitable wall constructed to block the sea view for the plot behind |
I was asked in 2012 to write a forgotten story from Beirut for an edited book that was being put together . At that time I was looking into a story I had heard recently from my father. He had told me that a brother who lost most of his plot due to the roads expansion decided to build a wall to make sure his brothers plot behind his does not benefit from the sea view!
Sounds crazy yet today the structure still stands as prove to building a grudge.
To read more about building and inhabiting the grudge, Jadaliyya has republished the essay.

Otherwise you may find the book in English or French as Beirut re-collected or Beyrouth, chroniques et détours.
