House of Stone: A Memoir of Home, Family, and a Lost Middle East
by Anthony Shadid
by Anthony Shadid
I wanted to love this but my interest waned part-way through. Even though it's well-written and combines family history, the complexities of Lebanese social mores, lots of the local color I remember from my three years in Lebanon, and the rebuilding of a house - I finished half-heartedly. Sometimes I think I'll never be able to reach a satisfactory level of understanding of this enigmatic place. I love it, but its issues are so multilayered and nuanced, I get lost.
