A beautiful book, showing the importance of writing as an art, in communication, and as an instrument of knowledge. In simple, elegant words and stunning illustrations incorporating Arabic callegraphy, the author takes the reader into his world and lets them look into a life in a different cultures and shows some ways in which it is very like his own.
