Maroun Abboud: Faces and Stories

Life is a museum of faces and stories, and we, the people, are the subjects. We are also the judges and critics of each other in this human mosaic. At the hands of a keen observer and a masterful storyteller like Maroun Abboud, our faces become the mirrors that reveal our inner agony or joy, and our lives become the didactic stories that are documented and narrated for everyone to see. Like a microcosm of life, some of these stories are happy while others are sad or even bizarre. Nevertheless, they are ours, and so are the faces and the emotions, the tears, and the smiles.

This book is basically a collection of moving and heartfelt stories as witnessed by Maroun Abboud during the First World War in Lebanon. Lebanon is a country whose residents are torn between loyalty to the starving and corrupt homeland and longing for diaspora where promises of prosperity and wealth abound.
