The Umayyad Mosque: An Epic of Stone, Light, and Memory
المسجد الأموي: ملحمة الحجر والضوء والذاكرة
Ten chapters and a conclusion in which an architect with a Damascene memory, now in New York, reads the Umayyad Mosque through the older layers beneath it, al-Walid's project, the courtyard, mosaics and minarets, its fires and restorations and the city that enters with its people, ending in an imagined dialogue with the mosque.
