A wonderful podcast
I was delighted when I came across this podcast a year ago. Thank you for your wonderful work.
BULAQ is a podcast about contemporary writing from and about the Middle East and North Africa. We talk about books written in Aleppo, Cairo, Marrakech and beyond. We look at the Arab region through the lens of literature, and we look at literature -- what it does, why it matters, how it relates to society and history and politics -- from the point of view of this part of the world. BULAQ is co-produced by ArabLit and The Arabist and is hosted by Ursula Lindsey and M Lynx Qualey.

A wonderful podcast about literature
I love Bulaq and always learn so much. Both the hosts are great and bring their own perspectives to the literature they discuss – which they are always honest about. It’s an invaluable show if you’re interested in literature and more specifically Arabic literary culture.

Love It!
Indispensable for anyone interested in the modern Arab world or in world literature. The hosts are up to the task of contextualising the works and authors. I’m always so happy to find a new episode. Small note on the May 7, 2020 episode: the person referred to as having written the script for the film Uridu Hallan , Hosn Shah, is a woman. Not Hasan.

What a gem
I’m always pleased with myself when I come across little unknown gems like this podcast. What a delight to listen to two smart women talk about books on a subject for which I’ve always had an interest yet know so little. Thank you, Bulaq, for bringing something new to the english-speaking book podcast world!

Great insight & coverage
Still early in its life (three episodes so far بولاق Bulaq showcases the great experience and depth of its hosts and will undoubtedly, like their own respective writings, become an indespensible resource to people interested in Arabic-language literature.
