Istanbul's Tulip

From the ancient Anatolian myths to the intricate hallways of Topkap¿ Palace, from the story of a tea cup at a teahouse in Boulder, Colorado, to a deserted beach of Cadiz, Spain, poems in ¿stanbul's Tulip: Collected Poems (1997-2018) invite us to travel through ages, cities, moods, and intimate moments; all shaping and reshaping each other. They present a rich texture of overlaps and coexistences, where the line between now and then takes a break for a cup of tea by the sea shore.
