My Arab Spring short story en francais
The superb French crime fiction blog Le Blog du Polar has a French-language version of my story Damascus Trance. I released this new Omar Yussef short story last week as an immediate response to the Syrian government’s crackdown on freedom demonstrators. Blogger Catherine Dô-Duc suggested translating it and I was more than happy to put it into her capable hands. Her translation is magnificent, and I deeply appreciate the work she put into bringing my story to Omar’s French fans. Lire la nouvelle en francais.
