A powerful reminder from Joseph Brodsky about why reading still matters.

"Şiirsel sonsuzluk anlayışı,
herhangi bir inanç sisteminin
savunduğundan çok daha büyüktür."
#JosephBrodsky

Amerika'lı şair ve deneme yazarının aramızdan ayrılışının 30. yılında saygıyla..

"One of my teachers ... #JosephBrodsky ... exiled from the Soviet Union for being a poet ... said look, you Americans are so naïve. You think evil is going to come into your houses wearing big black boots. It doesn’t come like that. Look at the language. It begins in the language.”

‘Freedom is when you forget the spelling of the tyrant’s name / and your mouth’s saliva is sweeter than Persian pie, / and though your brain is wrung tight as the horn of a ram / nothing drops from your pale-blue eye.’

~ #JosephBrodsky from “A Part of Speech”

It is a #spirit seeking flesh but finding #words.'
