Poetry reading


Every Monday night there is a poetry reading at the basement bar of the Firdous Hotel in central Damascus.

The place is backed (people who didn't get there early sit on the floor), the MC funny, the alcohol and nicotine-fueled crowd into-it and demonstrative. It's not some polite culture-vulture Loft event! (Sorry about the blur, no tripod for my camera)
