There were, however, two seemingly insurmountablebarriers - time and geography. So Schami’s sister Marie wandered throughDamascus for a year on his behalf, relaying curiosities, sounds, personalities, tastes andthe smells of the Old City, while Schami wrote them down, relishing the diverse mark lefton Damascene cuisine by its multifarious history. Rafik Schami is the acclaimed authorof The Dark Side of Love.
