ADNAN, Etel
There: In the Light and the Darkness of the Self and of the Other

There: In the Light and the Darkness of the Self and of the Other is a prose poem that becomes a long and poignant interrogation. In it Adnan asks whether or not there is an other out there, or if it is all a matter of being alone in the world. And, to what degree can we know the other and what exactly do we know? There also investigates the conflicts that arise “as soon as we are two.” “A conversation,” she writes, “is the beginning of civilizations.” [publisher's note]
