The concept revolves around the idea of a living novel that is shaped by the people who listen to it. Twice a month, on a Sunday, in Knock on Wood Hamra, the Amazin&#8217; Sardine will read a chapter of his novel August 2015, a novel set in a post-apocalyptic Beirut in the company of an insane protagonist.<\/p>\n<p>  A discussion will be held after the reading where people would ask whatever they want and then write on pieces of paper the situations they would like to see happen.<\/p>\n<p>  The August 2015 Project could be considered as a simple serial novel that can be accessed through the internet freely and which is updated every two weeks with a new chapter, yet for the full experience.<br \/>  If you are in the vicinity of Beirut, Lebanon, the Amazin&#8217; Sardine will read the new born chapter live and you will get the chance to veer the novel into that place that is more you.<\/p>\n<p>  Don\u2019 t think too much, ignore that gut cramp telling you no. Come. It will be worth it. It will be repulsive in that way only the Amazin\u2019 Sardine can deliver.<\/p>\n<p>  The Amazin\u2019 Sardine, is a dish better served old.
