Publisher's Synopsis

Ece Temelkuran is arguably Turkey's most accomplished young writer. In Book of the Edge, she describes an allegorical journey wherein the speaker, or explorer, encounters strange creatures, including a butterfly, bull, swordfish, sow bug, and cruel city dwellers. These poems point to the undeniable connection between all living beings.

Born 1973 in Turkey, Ece Temelkuran (www.ecetemelkuran.com) has published eight books of poetry, prose, and nonfiction. An award-winning daily columnist for Milliyet, she was a 2008 visiting fellow at the University of Oxford's Reuters Institute for the Study of Journalism.

Translator Deniz Perin received the 2007 Anna Akhmatova Fellowship for Younger Translators.
