Overview

For a long time, you find yourself swallowing your words-perhaps for as long as you've known who you are. They call it holding things in. But one day, without warning, a scream escapes you-untimely, uninvited, arising out of nothing. To others, it means madness. To you, it is a beginning. Within that scream, you finally find your voice. Everything hidden bursts forth, scattering into the world-wild, unrestrained. Fear leaves you. So does hesitation. You raise your banners high, cry out to the wind, unashamed and unafraid. And yet, until only yesterday, your soul whispered its silent laments. Now, at last, it speaks-and good luck to anyone who can silence it! This book gives voice to women whose cries were swallowed by time: those forced to grow up before they were ready; whose wings shattered while soaring among the clouds; who tried-again and again-to take flight. To those who taught love to the loveless and, in doing so, drifted away from themselves. To those who longed for a father's sheltering arms, yet were cast adrift instead. To those who yearned to belong to a homeland, yet learned the ache of solitude. And to all who, despite the wounds of life, still cling fiercely to its fragile, burning light. Sezen Şen Born in Istanbul in 1985, the author moved away from her hometown at a young age due to her mother's profession. This allowed her to live in various regions of Turkey, where she experienced diverse cultures and met people from many walks of life. She earned her bachelor's degree in mathematics, later continued with language studies in the United States, and obtained a master's degree in tourism in Switzerland. Her growing passion for literature eventually led her to pursue another bachelor's degree in Turkish Language and Literature, grounding her love for writing in academic study. Writing has been part of her life since middle school. She draws inspiration from her personal experiences, the different places she has lived, and the many people she has encountered. Through her stories, she aims to reflect the depth of human emotion, the subtle intricacies of daily life, and the traces left by real experiences. Since 2014, she has been sharing her original short stories on Instagram under the account @hayatinhikayeleri. Her heartfelt writing has attracted a loyal community of nearly 5,000 readers who connect with the emotional resonance and sincerity of her work.
