Hand Sometimes Hands is a simple yet powerful illustrated book.
Through the universal image of the “hand,” it reflects the movements of the heart and the feelings that often remain hidden.
A hand that reaches, supports, or trembles — within these gestures, each reader can discover their own story.
What makes this book unique is that it is not just to be read, but to be written in by you.
With 8 illustrations and short haiku as prompts, you are invited to write your own story, using the book as a mirror for your inner voice.
Sometimes the hand is your own, sometimes another’s, and sometimes something unseen — a Ghobbul presence, reminding us that we are not alone.
