Birhan Keskin's poetry is finelyhoned and minimal and at the same time, powerfully visual, evocative and exact. Meaning and music overlap, lines dissolve, restart and repeat. Fluid and elusive, her poems inhabit a space between cognition and remembering, testimony and invention. This book selects work from six of Keskin's books, including her prizewinning collection Ba. George Messo's outstanding translation enables us to appreciate to the full the work of this exceptional poet.
