Epiphany: A Collection of Poems

by V.S. Atbay

Epiphany is a collection of poems that ranges in complexity while examining and revealing the depth of the human psyche from a contemporary, romantic, abstract, surrealist, erotic and natural position. The author applies both cold realism and idealism within a broad range of themes such as life and death, light and darkness, politics and society, women and nature, love and sorrow, ecstasy and longing, and war and revolution. The author writes from both a male and female voice and applies the frequent use of free verse, personification and figurative metaphors to evoke the many layers of emotions, ideas and private experiences that are hidden and woven in the human sub-conscience, allowing the reader to naturally reach introspection, or perhaps, even their own "Epiphany." The collection of poems are a mixture of exciting contradictions written from a passionate, subtle, raw yet honest voice.
