Meteorology

by Alpay Ulku


Available in limited quantity

In this debut collection by Alpay Ulku, Meteorology speaks to the prevailing climate of the times we live in, a metaphor for the disturbances that buffet the lives of those that inhabit these poems. Moving as easily over natural landscapes as they do over the landscapes of the 20th century, Ulku's poems are at once beautiful and powerfully moving.
