Deema Shehabi's ghazal, "A Lover's Quarrel with the World" is a tender ode to our finite, rich, and painful time in this world, an ode to togetherness and wonder, time and love. In it, she asks softly, "What's a story, but its plural all over the world?" ⁣

The masks were reminders of relentlessness, of standing up to oppression, of anger. Now, updated news and reports tell us to wear different kind of masks when we step outside of the house'. In today's piece, Nur Turkmani weaves together the events of the past year — revolution, pandemic, and lockdown — and her memories of them, as she struggles to make sense of “the absurd film” we have found ourselves in today.

Read @nurturkmani’s creative nonfiction essay on the link below [and in bio], as part of our Thawrat series.

@gabrielalteif remembers watching President Michel Aoun’s first speech after October 17, the first day of the 2019 protests in Lebanon, and being stunned by the absurdity of his discourse. Since then, her pop art illustrations have parodied Lebanon's ruling elite - from the melting away of former Prime Minister Saad Hariri to the bankrupt Banque du Liban.
