I was still living as an Arab Muslim in America. I struggled with coming out to friends and family; and so I decided to come back to Syria. It hasnrsquo;t been easy. But we are here; just as we are everywhere.DAMASCUS 18:00 ndash; Amina was walking near Fares Al-Khouri Street when three armed men seized her. According to an eyewitness; Amina was bustled into ared Dacia Logan with a bumper sticker of Basel Assad. The men are assumed to be members of the Barsquo;ath Partymilitia or one of the security services. Aminarsquo;s present location is still unknown. Following the story of Amina Arraf; the blogger known as lsquo;A Gay Girl In Damascusrsquo;; and the events fomented by the mediarsquo;s coverage of her kidnapping; Sour Lips fuses fantasy and non-fiction to create its own speculative narrative.This play is a fictional account; inspired by both a hoax and its true story. It contains extracts from Tom MacMasterrsquo;s weblog; A Gay Girl in Damascus. However; the characters; timelines and incidents have been changed for dramatic purposes. In some cases; fictitious characters and incidents have been further added to the narrative; and the words are those imagined by the author. The play should not be understood as either a biography or factual account.

Most architecture books are simplified coffee table books. This one shows sections and details which helps you understand the tectonics and connections. The projects are fairly new and innovative and great case studies.5 of 7 people found the following review helpful. greatest hitsBy Elizabeth FrenchmanI buy architecture books within a somewhat narrow focus. It should be a publication that cant be; wouldnt be; duplicated on the web (so; excellent quality; big illustrations one wants to pore over and compare a few pages back with some other big illustration) and helpful to the actual practice of architecture. Inspiration and theory will be supplied through the explication of structure; materials; fulfillment of program as well as any ephemeral qualities of beauty. While this book supplies a bit of each of the above; it is not deep enough to win a big "wow." The projects have all been published in many magazines; so no surprises there. The hardcore information is cursory. Still; for a quick consult it is better than many surveys and the projects are juicy (thats why they got published in the first place.) Question to Princeton Architectural Press: would it kill you to include an index or some appendices? [The best references for contemporary details remain... Detail magazines and books; even if the text takes some vigilance to filter the Germ-glish; actually charming; commentary and captions.]0 of 0 people found the following review helpful.
