The Arab World Meets Europe

By: euforyou (31) in faculty, staff, alumni, student

March 2, 2016. A reading and conversation with Elias Khoury, moderated by Jocelyne Cesari.

[...]Khoury reads from and discusses his latest novel, Broken Mirrors: Sinalcol (Archipelago Books, January, 2016). The novel follows Karim, a Lebanese doctor who has escaped the civil war by emigrating to France, as he returns to Beirut like a “criminal returns to the scene of his crime.”

Presented by the Center for the Study of Europe at Boston University. Co-sponsored by Institute for Iraqi Studies, the Institute for the Study of Muslim Societies and Civilizations, the Middle East and North African Studies Program, and the literary journal AGNI. Free and open to the public. Supported in part by a Getting to Know Europe grant from the European Commission Delegation.
