Guests of the Body

About the Book

Guests of the Body is a collection of inspirational, visionary and inventive poetry, where Aksoy describes love, emotion, feelings and heart ache in every way as a guest of the body. Aksoy takes something eternal and communicates it through what is temporal, by taking what is beyond this earth and express it through earthy senses and earth bound images and the reader enters a journey that describes in words how our heart ache in enticement, how our mind spur feelings and how our body's flattery travels all over our blood stream, and each event, emotion and feelings are felt temporarily the same way compared to a guest visiting, and once they leave, a certain memory is created.

About the Author

Born in Sweden, Majvor Sabine Aksoy has been honoured three times with, Certificate of Achievement Award for her Creative Writing Skills, she has also been awarded two times with The Editor's Choice Award, for her outstanding achievement in Poetry writing, and presented with the International Poet of Merit award. She has also been published in three magazines and nine anthologies, her success story has appeared in her local newspaper twice, and she sold one poem to be used as a song. Her extraordinary success follows as she continues her journey in poetry writing, non-fiction writing and screenwriting.

Guests of the Body is her fourth published book. Aksoy has a unique way of writing, infused with it's own special characteristics, there is so much to be admired in the way she writes and the way she projects her personality into her writing. The way she ties her words together, is an amazing work of art.

Through each and every poem that she writes, expresses an idea, an emotion, an experience or all three at the same time. By telling a story, and portraying a character, she describes a scene and sings a song, she creates a conflict, that by the end of it, the argument speaks to the soul in million ways. Most of her poems take an act on the imagination, that takes place in a language through it's artistic expression created in words. The language is more important than the event it relates, sometimes she takes an actual event and filters the event through imagination and then recreates it in words. She likes to translate the event into a language while the reader experiences the translation, the event-in-words that each word echo's with a meaning. She likes to make use of imagery, metaphor, sound and rhythm, and all these aspects happen in her poem all at the same time, they're ongoing working together.
