Arabic saying that got me in tears;

“هناك قلوب لن تكرهك مهما أوجعتها "

"There are hearts that won't ever hate you, no matter how much you hurt them."

Arabian Dark Academia

Practising Arabic calligraphy, retaping flash cards back onto the wall of notes, kohl-rimmed eyes, translated folklore and classics, layered tops and long skirts, homework assignments written on your palms, self-teaching the mother tongue, mint tea and spicy coffee, writing from right to left, then writing from left to right, ink stains on your hands and cheeks, henna painted hands, long to-do lists, gold on your neck and your hands, dual language notes, detailed diagrams, switching languages mid-speech, headscarves in muted colours, reciting prayers against stress and anxiety, bookshelves filled with western and eastern novels, forgetting words in one language but remembering it in another, chewing the tops of pens and pencils, reapplying roll-on perfume throughout the school day, highlighted lines in textbooks, loud rich laughter bouncing off the corridors where ever the group goes.

You are a student. You are a student descended from foreign parents. You do what you were brought to the West to do. You learn.

Samarkand by Amin Maalouf

A novel that perfectly encompasses the arabian dark academia subgenre. This story has a dual timeline, the first is set in old-time Persia as the mystic Omar Khayyam authors his famous book; the Rubaiyaat. The other timeline is set in modern-day America as an obsessed scholar attempts to hunt down the original Rubaiyaat manuscript.

I was delighted to find a personal inscription on the first page by a past owner. I love thrifting books and seeing other people's writings in them.
