Sinopsis
On 4 August 2020, Theodore Ell was living in Beirut, Lebanon, when an explosion erupted at the local port, killing more than 200 people and injuring thousands more. Ell and his wife, a diplomat, survived, but were badly shaken. Ell turned his experience into the personal essay ‘Façades of Lebanon’, which went on to win the 2021 Calibre Essay Prize. The essay was published in the July 2021 edition of the Australian Book Review.
