      Synopsis

      Cet ouvrage bilingue français/anglais est le résultat d’un parcours dans la ville de Beyrouth, de rencontres au détour d’une rue pour recueillir de touchants témoignages et d’émouvantes photographies. Autant de rencontres, autant de visages qui sont le reflet des secrets d’une ville. Pour ne pas perdre cet héritage, trois jeunes sont partis à la découverte de ces métiers oubliés. Vendeur de kaaks, argenteur, circonciseur…tous ont grandi dans ces rues et seront peutêtre les derniers témoins d’un Beyrouth d’antan.


      Losing Touch, Beyrouth des petits métiers is primarily a book of encounters with those who, at a street corner, offer us their expertise and their smile. In order not to lose that heritage, three young people went to discover these forgotten artisans… Kaak hawker, silverer, circumciser… These men and women may be the last witnesses of the Beirut of yesteryear. From these 50 artisans from Beirut, telling us their profession, their passion, their dreams and wishes, we will remember their unwavering commitment to the city, their fear of losing their livelihood and their desire to pass on their experience. Through testimonies and portraits, this is a book about all the faces that are the reflection and the soul of a city.
