Synopsis
Ce livre est l'aboutissement d'un travail que Hassan Massoudy a commencé en 1999. Rassemblant depuis toujours des citations, proverbes et poèmes du monde arabo-musulman sur le thème de l'amour, il décida alors de s'en inspirer pour transmettre par la calligraphie les mille nuances évoquées par ce mot dans l'âme orientale.
Deux auteurs l'ont guidé : Al Hallaj (Xe siècle) et ses poèmes d'amour divin ; Ibn Zaydoun (XIe siècle) et sa passion pour Wallada. Autour de ces deux figures majeures, gravitent des poètes préislamiques, soufis, contemporains, qui ont enrichi son univers.
