Once I Entered A Garden

By

Avi Mograbi

Once I entered a garden fantasizes an “Old Middle East, wherein communities were not divided along ethnic and religious lines; a Middle East in which even metaphorical borders had no place. In Ali and Avi’s joint-adventure: the journey they take to their own and each other’s communal histories in a time machine born of their friendly encounter, the Middle East of yore – the one in which they could coexist effortlessly – resurfaces with commensurate ease.
