A Lost Summer: Postcards from Lebanon

Culled from a vast selection of personal messages and transformed into postcards, A Lost Summer reflects a range of reactions, from defiance and courage, confusion and anger, to humor and hope.

When I was 2 years old, until I was 5, the worst bombing took place. When my siblings were about the same age, the same acts took place. For a while I thought that war is like chicken pox: it happens to everyone at a certain age.
—Wadiaa Khoury
