SOMEONE CALLS ME BY MY NAME
Someone Calls Me by My Name by Rene Karabash is a poetry collection about the attempt to merge with another person while still remaining true to yourself. To warm the cold half of the bed, yet also be careful not to burn in your own fire meant for two. It is a book about the fear that you can find yourself only if you lose yourself in the one you love. And when that person leaves, do we leave with them too? You remain abandoned by two people, and you call yourself by name, but the only answer comes from the pain “that you yourself invented.”
Noisy and quiet, grounded and soaring.
—Tina Filosofova, IMPRESSIO
