Book 76 of 81: A Little Book of...
Synopsis
Tbilisi follows the Mtkvari through a narrow valley, a capital shaped by warm springs, repeated conquest, trade routes and the close coexistence of many languages and faiths. Its identity lives in the tension between fortress walls, shared courtyards, imperial avenues, Soviet infrastructure and restless reinvention.
A Little Book of Tbilisi enters the Georgian capital through forty concise, researched reflections. Follow the warm water that gave the city its name; climb from Abanotubani and Metekhi to Narikala; enter caravanserais, churches, a mosque, a synagogue and wooden courtyard houses. Sit at a supra, listen to polyphony, taste tone bread and qvevri wine, and trace the city through imperial Tiflis, the avant-garde, Soviet rule, the events of April 9, independence, the Dry Bridge market, Sameba and the Bridge of Peace.
Written for travellers, readers and lovers of layered cities, this is an intimate literary portrait rather than a conventional guidebook: a book about warmth, memory, shared tables and the difficult work of beginning again.
