The Remnants of Time T Byram Karasu

In my most arrested hours
my soul is in need of others
I ring doors that never open,
peeling away all hopes
until the light darkens my sight,
I feed my mind to itself.

Suffused with wit and compassion, The Remnants of Time shares reflections on the profound depths of our inner life-a psychological tour-de-force in poetic form.

In his most recent collection, T. Byram Karasu offers poems that showcase technical ingenuity and immediacy of expression while illustrating the subtlety and delicacy of music within verse. With his remarkable wisdom, Karasu strips away all our self-consoling illusions, explores our mundane and existential anxieties, and frames our most tender and painful human emotions within exhilarating lyrical and linguistic complexity.

The Remnants of Time is a volume of poetic reflections on the profound depths of our inner life and our most tender and painful emotions.
