As we considered returning to Beirut last summer before the city was under attack , my brother said, ‘The  problem is the sonic booms would frighten the children.’ 

The city was experiencing frequent sonic booms from Israeli jets, a form of psychological warfare that alongside the constant buzz of surveillance drones disrupted daily life. We ultimately decided against the trip. 

Now, I look forward to the real soundscape of Beirut—the comforting sounds of my father’s land. 

Now that he’s no longer with us, I find myself more and more attached to this beautiful city and its beautiful people—the chaotic beeps and traffic , the call to prayer, the waves, the music, the eating, the drinking, and the laughter—lots of loud  free laughter 🩷💕
