In A little book of unspoken history, Elif Sezen navigates physical and metaphysical spheres, conjuring multilayered historical and imaginative narratives.
Memories of domestic disruption act as a point of departure in these poems, with the poet traveling through time, greeting souls in existential landscapes, illuminating extremity in inner and outer worlds, pivoting between vulnerability and strength, the sayable and the unsayable.
Sezen’s language charts an ethereal personal odyssey. Her constant metaphors of remembering and forgetting unfold as an existential mystical journey linking biographical and imaginative tellings.
