Tarek Chemaly's "But you can never leave" - Updated

Based on my art series released earlier this year "... But you can never leave" I am very pleased to bring you these additions which still talk about the Beirut Hotels as dipped in NTSC (Never Twice Same City) sauce, as a way to exercise the memory and to see which part is truth and which is fiction and where the line is drawn. Should you desire a to purchase a copy of this or other works, do visit tarekchemaly.com for details.
 Holiday Inn
 Phoenicia
 Riviera Hotel

Very cool concept. I love the Holiday Inn one. Do you have a high res so we can read all the text. Who knew they had 500 rooms! Does any hotel have that many today?
