We met with Samar Haddad, the woman at the helm of the historic Dar Atlas publishing house in Damascus. Since the 1950s, Dar Atlas has published, among other things, what Haddad describes as “beautiful books” both inside and out. “The true publisher, whether small, medium or large, is the freedom fighter of our age. As a publisher, I’m a resistance fighter in this age of consumerism.”
