Les Mots et le Ciel
When Karim Haidar told us he wants to open a new place in Paris, a place that would remind him of Beirut, especially now with the world turning upside down, a place where people can meet, a place for food and books and dreams, we immediately suggested calling it “Les Mots et le Ciel” (Les Mots et le Ciel / The Words and the Sky), to remind us all that’s what connects everyone, words and sky, between Paris and Beirut, between Fairuz and Marcel Proust.
