This special issue of Contemporary French and Francophone Studies guest edited by Claire Launchbury (UNSW) and Nayla Tamraz (USJ) brings together a collection of articles following the international conference ‘War, Memory, Amnesia: Francophone Perspectives on Postwar Lebanon’ organised at the University of Leeds in June 2013. In addition to thirteen articles covering literature, theatre, documentary, film, art installations and photography, the volume includes poetry by Wael Koudeih, who performs as a ‘rappeur militant’ under the name of Rayess Bek and an unpublished work by Antoine Boulad written presciently on the eve of Rafic Hariri’s assassination on 14 Feb 2005. Leslie Hakim-Dowek publishes here her photo-text ‘The city that exploded slowly’ from 2009 and Max Silverman, a fascinating interview with filmmakers and artists Joana Hadjithomas and Khalil Joreige on their 2007 film, Je veux voir.
