An intriguing memoir about the ongoing financial and political crises in Lebanon. These are lines written about Lebanon, lines of approach to Lebanon, and lines of communication which frequently get snarled up and become a tangle at both political and every-day practical levels.They take the reader to a nation often in crisis: the threat of war and civil strife, mass influx of refugees and displacement of people; collapse of the local currency and a politics of division. But Lebanon is also a country to be lived in - with close and extended family, snow-in-winter mountains and sun-in-summer seaside; fruitful valleys and heights with fare to feed its five million inhabitants. In his Lines on Lebanon, Antony Johae immerses himself in the life of the country - in day-to-day family happenings and in the wider political domain. A memoir from one who starts as a foreigner and who slowly gains insight from the inside.
