Summary, etc. Through memories spanning the 1940s to the 1980s, the poems in House to House: ﺑﯾتﻟﺑﯾت capture infra-ordinary details of daily life around the Dubai Creek, where spectacle is noticed in the ordinary and humor is found in unconventional spaces. Here, a people made community, took care of each other’s babies and businesses and witnessed the city’s incremental metamorphoses. Through collected and refracted oral narratives, revealed is the light, wit, wisdom, and adventure of an extraordinary generation.Through memories spanning the 1940s to the 1980s, the poems in House to House: ﺑﯾتﻟﺑﯾت capture infra-ordinary details of daily life around the Dubai Creek, where spectacle is noticed in the ordinary and humor is found in unconventional spaces.
