La nuit des calligraphes
by Yasmine Ghata (2006)
About this book
The passion for calligraphy possesses Rikkat. Her life as a woman and mother is a succession of disruptions and abandonments. It is always in writing that it flows, communicating to the arabesques an emotion that humanizes and modernizes this art. The novel mixes the little-known world of scriptural practices, a realm of the strange and mysticism, and contemporary Turkey given over to Western influences.
