- Summary
- "Damascus 2008: three people suddenly disappear. Zaat al-Abed, a presumed secret agent, Leena Kilkka, curator of the Damascus Biennial, an event that never happens, and a flâneur, whose diary is accidentally lost and found. "Damascus : tourists, artists, secret agents" is a pseudo-fictitious encounter of artists, dancers, secret agents, speculative writers, lovers, film-makers and photographers who come together to unravel the rumors, questions and traces of the mysterious disappearances that happen in the subconscious urban setting of one of the world's oldest cities. The idiosyncratic novel is the outcome of a Reloading Images collaboration ... involving more than thirty international artists and writers."--P. [4] of cover.
