@simongandrew Wonderful news. This would help Arabic speakers back home (whose second language is FR) to engage with your work, which might up perspectives on studying cassettes and sound-related topics locally.

A mural for the late Jordanian writer Mu'nes Al-Razaz in Amman, Jordan.
Once he wrote about his relation with Amman, Baghdad and Beirut that
"Cities are mirrors... They don't wanna reflect my image. Whenever I look at a mirror, it becomes transparent".
