  • Roseanne Saad Khalaf Reflections on Two Cities: Beirut and Fez My
    Roseanne KHALAF— Reflections on Two Cities| 1 Roseanne Saad Khalaf Reflections on Two Cities: Beirut and Fez “I hope that my city, Beirut, is relearning to Be a true cosmopolitan space, a cosmopolitan space in the age of gloBal reality, where ‘others’ are, again, also ‘us’ and where juxtaposition is fighting hierarchy.” Mai GhoussouB My revised essay is interspersed with impressions, observations, thoughts and encounters (not necessarily in chronological order) that took place during the 2009 Souk Ukaz: Writing in and Beyond the City symposium in Fez and Casablanca Beirut is the city I feel most attached to. I have vivid childhood recollections of accompanying my Teta (grandmother) on her visits to the souk. For the sum of 25 piasters, the taxi driver took us down steep, winding roads that sliced through quaint little villages until we reached Martyrs’ Square, with its statue commemorating those who rebelled against Ottoman rule in 1915. From there, we walked to the ancient souks teeming with life and the deafening hum of activity. Jostled by shoppers and vendors, we made our way along dusty, narrow cobblestone streets to the den of shouts, laughter and the clip‐clop of donkey’s hoofs. The sights, scents and sounds fuelled my imagination and awakened my senses to the enticements of city life making me all the more determined to live in Beirut when I grew up. Teta was not pleased. “It’s risky,” she cautioned. “In this city, the turbulent past continues to intrude on the present.” Many times after that I heard Beirut referred to as the phoenix forever rising from the ashes or the ancient city that refuses to die.
