It took him more than 30 years before he could recount his teenage years in the midst of the civil war in Lebanon. In Chant seaside, the author retraces daily life in the throes of war with the setting behind closed doors, that of a seaside resort where he found refuge at the time with his mother and sister, far from the fighting in the capital. A powerful story with a singular writing between prose and poetry.
