Bazı hikâyeler bitmez. Şiire dönüşürler.
Taze, aidiyet, kadınlık, annelik, aşk, hayal kırıklığı, göç, kimlik ve yeniden doğuş arasında dolaşan şiirsel bir yüzleşme.
Bir dava dosyasını andıran Beyan, Tanık, Tutanak ve İz bölümleri boyunca Selin Şenol Akın, hem kendi geçmişinin hem de objektif bir bakış ile insan ilişkilerinin görünmez mahkemesinde sözü bazen sanığa, bazen tanığa, bazen de okuyucuya bırakıyor.
Türk ile Amerikan kültürü, geçmiş ile bugün, kalmak ile gitmek, sevmek ile vazgeçmek arasındaki eşiklerde; mizah, melankoli ve toplumsal gözlemi kişisel bir dille buluşturuyor.
Taze, kusursuz iyileşmenin değil, değişmenin kitabı. Çünkü insan bazen geçmişini geride bırakarak değil, ona başka bir yerden bakmayı öğrenerek yenilenir, tazelenir...Ve bazı şeyler, yıllar geçse de, hâlâ taze kalırlar.
___________________________________________________________
Some stories never truly end. They become poetry.
Taze is a poetic reckoning with belonging, womanhood, motherhood, love, disillusionment, migration, identity, and renewal.
Structured like an unconventional case file through sections of Statement, Witness, Record, and Trace, Selin Senol Akin moves through the invisible trials of her own past and of human relationships-at times taking the stand, at times observing from a distance, and at times quietly turning the questions toward the reader.
Moving between Turkish and American cultures, past and present, staying and leaving, loving and letting go, Taze blends melancholy, wit, social observation, and intimate reflection.
This is not a collection about healing perfectly. It is about transformation...and the realization that sometimes we renew/refresh ourselves not by leaving the past behind, but by learning to see it differently. Because some things, no matter how much time passes, remain 'taze' (fresh).
