Al Manakh Is …

Blog

A fresh stock of your essential Gulf literature is in. The last and final print-run, so last chance.

This is what the press wrote about it:

‘Al Manakh is compulsive reading because it engages with, and does its best to explain, the astonishing explosion of development in the Persian Gulf’- RIBA Joural

‘With shaky photos that seem to have been taken on cell phones, and short, punchy texts that take on difficult issues and never lapse into jargon or condescension, this odd book represents a serious attempt to analyse the development explosion in the Gulf states.’ - Financial Times

More quotes from the press and more photo montages at the Al Manakh site
