Review
        	
        	
        		
        			Khoury is the sort of novelist whose name is inseparable from a city. Los Angeles has Joan Didion and Raymond Chandler, and Istanbul, Orhan Pamuk. The beautiful, resilient city of Beirut belongs to Khoury. --The Los Angeles Times  No Lebanese writer has been more successful than Elias Khoury in telling the story of Lebanon . . . Khoury is one of the most innovative novelists in the Arab world. --Washington Post Book World  How to write Beirut? . . . with words and images that stumble with weariness, that collapse from the heat, from the stone which composes them only to crumble in turn? . . . This is why Khoury&apos;s fiction is so powerful. The intent of the writing is to restore its soul. --Tahar Ben Jelloun  Elias Khoury is a pure storyteller. A writer who understands the hypnotic power of words, and who lets this power become the actual subject of his books. Of course, alongside the words, there is reality, palpable, sensual, atrocious. --Le Nouvel Observateur  Khoury [is] arguably the finest living Arab novelist. . . . White Masks represents a turning point in Khoury&apos;s work. . . . A compelling, thoughtful read. --World Literature Today

        			Elias Khoury, born in Beirut, is the author of thirteen novels, four volumes of literary criticism, and three plays. He was awarded the Palestine Prize for Gate of the Sun, which was named Best Book of the Year by Le Monde Diplomatique, The Christian Science Monitor, and The San Fransisco Chronicle, and a Notable Book by The New York Times. Khoury&apos;s Yalo, As Though She Were Sleeping, Little Mountain, The Journey of Little Gandhi, and City Gates are also available in English. Khoury is a Global Distinguished Professor of Middle Eastern and Arabic Studies at New York University. As Though She Were Sleeping received France&apos;s inaugural Arabic novel Prize. Maia Tabet, born in Lebanon, is a literary translator and a professional cook. She translated Khoury&apos;s first novel to be published in English, Little Mountain, and has translated a number of prose texts that have appeared in literary magazines including Banipal, Words Without Borders, and Fikran wa Fann. Currently, she lives in the United States.
