5.0 out of 5 stars
a treasure,
By A Customer
This review is from: Perfect Harmony (Calligrapher's Notebooks) (Paperback)
This is a beautiful marriage of word and art, word in art, and divine revelation through intimate encounter with poetry. The calligraphy that meets the word creates a fire bed of understanding within you. At points while reading/experiencing this beautiful book I had to stop, lay down, and close my eyes. Such passion is generated and released within this short work. I love the picture of the calligraphor in the back of the book, very simple and authentic, at work in front of a huge shelf filled with glass jars of paints and colored powders. Thanks to Mr. Massoudy for letting Ibn Al-Arabi swirl through his work in all his rich, vibrant love-drenched wildness! WOW! Get this book! Keep it close!

"A double letter at the moment of union",
By
This review is from: Perfect Harmony (Calligrapher's Notebooks) (Paperback)
In this magnificent book, word and form achieve a perfect harmony like that of Ibn 'Arabi and his beloved. Ibn 'Arabi's beautiful, many-layered love poetry and Hassan Massoudy's luminous calligraphy are among the most astonishing things I've experienced in a long while. Read this and weep for what is happening now in Najaf, Massoudy's home town.
