A narrative that transcends borders from Aksoy: Potosi

Culture and Arts Service

Despite its 101-page volume, Yunus Aksoy's "Potosi," published by Epona Kitap , presents the reader with a narrative universe that transcends borders. The book is neither confined to the local nor the global; time, place, and characters appear fluidly throughout the text, like "nebula patterns" that appear and disappear. Aksoy's writing is as honest and sincere as the logbook an ant keeps as it travels the world.

In his narratives, past and present , science and art, converge in the same universe. In this world where fish know everything, dinosaur shadows loom, and scientists and technological creatures flourish, diverse historical moments, from Çanakkale to Franco's Spain, also find their place. The book, with its fairytale-like style, offers readers a short but intense literary experience. Aksoy, a professor of macroeconomics at Birkbeck University London, invites the reader on a vibrant adventure with "Potosi."
