Comix in Translation: An Excerpt from ‘Beirut’ Trilogy

This excerpt from Barrack Zailaa Rima’s graphic-novel-trilogy Beirut, which appears with permission, follows the narrator as they try to reckon with exile. Rima’s time-hopping Beirut is out this fall from Invisible Publishing in Carla Calargé and Alexandra Gueydan-Turek’s co-translation.

Also today, as part of Women in Translation month, read a conversation between Rima and ArabLit’s Layla Faraj.
