two ex-Lebanese colleagues in Montreal to whom I gave copy of your article said respectively: C'est délicieux et je n'ai pu m'arrêter de lire... and : It made me so nostalgic and so happy to learn that an Israeli had made it to Beirut ! She (Lisa) writes beautifully and she is right in many many ways.... One of them even offered to give you the name and email of an architect (Beiruti) who would be very happy to give you a tour and explain the architecture of every building.... No doubt those will show your article to others, who will forward it, etc. etc. etc.
