Khan al-Shouneh, Aleppo: The Epic of the Hand That Refused to Disappear
خان الشونة، حلب: ملحمة اليد التي رفضت أن تنقرض
Ten chapters on Khan al-Shouneh, built in 1546 near the Citadel of Aleppo, whose name recalls grain storage and which later became a market for Aleppine crafts: its courtyard, coppersmiths, woodcarvers and embroiderers, the war that reached it and the return of the shopkeepers. Its future, the book argues, depends on masters teaching apprentices.
