On the occasion of the 7th anniversary of the 23.5 Hrant Dink Site of Memory, which opened its doors in 2019, the book 23.5 has been published in both Turkish and English. Shaped around the themes of memory, truth, confrontation, action and hope, 23.5 invites us to think together about a future where coexistence is possible.

Featuring Hrant Dink among its authors, the book brings together 16 writers from Turkey and different parts of the world, who explore how the values Hrant Dink advocated and that are represented at the 23.5 Hrant Dink Site of Memory resonate across different geographies. Through texts that engage in dialogue with lived experiences stretching from South Africa to the Americas and Europe, the book demonstrates that these are not concerns belonging to any one particular place, but shared questions that resonate across different geographies. Grounded in memory, truth and hope, the book aims to serve as a reference for all those who think and act in pursuit of memory and justice.

23.5 will be available from April 25 onward at the 23.5 Hrant Dink Site of Memory, the Hrant Dink Foundation, bookstores and online retail platforms.

We wish you meaningful reading, for remembering and for thinking anew.
