Then, she looked at me assiduously, "What is it that you do exactly?"I replied, savoring my last sip of coffee, with all the sass of a gypsy, "A novelist."How to write a novel? Where to find inspiration? Guidance? Motivation? What is the nature of love? And most importantly, how and where to find it? Embarking on a literary and romantic journey, an aspiring novelist guides the reader through the streets of Damascus to bookstores, libraries, historical landmarks, cafes, and neighborhoods that carry the traces of history and the possibilities of the future. Mining the rich and divergent histories, narratives, texts, memories, and people that occupy the narrator's mind and everyday life, Writing Love is a playful testament to the tangential nature of writing and the many ways to fall in love.Writing Love was awarded the Naguib Mahfouz Medal for Literature.
