Youth t-shirt
He paid fifteen rials for an old radio without haggling, and he always haggles. This youth Arabian fox T-shirt carries Faiz facing forward, with his sand-colored cap and beige hood peeking out, from my Animal Kinhood series.
Vulpes vulpes arabica
Man's rubbish sustains the fox who scatters dates fifteen kilometers further on.
Arabian Peninsula: Hajar and Dhofar mountains (Oman), United Arab Emirates, Saudi Arabia, Yemen, Jordan, Kuwait and Qatar. Occupies rock and sand deserts, coastal dunes, wadis, agricultural zones and peri-urban neighborhoods.
In his story, the vendor at the souq set aside a Grundig Satellit 2100 from the seventies for him, the same radio model his father had in the van. Faiz paid for it without haggling, something he never does. He took it apart, found the blown capacitor — the part that had caused the static he used to hear as a kid — and replaced it. He tuned it to Radio Oman AM: it sounded just like it had fifteen years earlier.
He doesn't forgive the father who left, and he'd never admit out loud that he misses him; but he confirmed, by repairing it himself, that some things can be fixed without changing what broke them. I made it front-facing with no background: on a youth T-shirt, it reads at a glance. You carry a fox who fixes what can be fixed. The rest of his story is in his biography, written by me, Yago Partal.
