The Calligrapher's Garden | 
pickI read Massoudy's "Calligraphies of Love" a couple of years ago, and this companion volume repeats the same winning formula of pairing a line of poetry with a calligraphic interpretation in Arabic. I still can't read Arabic, but fortunately the quotes are bilingually in English, too, and reading Arabic isn't necessary to enjoy the fluid grace of Massoudy's work (though it probably would enhance it).
Bookwomble This volume focuses on nature and gardens, following the seasons, and when it's the right weather for it in this hemisphere, I'll enjoy this again sitting outdoors. 3mo
