Reseña del editor:
Second New is a conceptual poetry movement that emerged in Turkey in the 1950's and continued into the 70's. It is conceptual in the sense that the poetry was developed independently without any manifesto, rules or guidelines and that the name “Second New” was coined afterwards, but in principle the works shared a style with characteristics described as abstract, avant-garde, obscure, and personal. The core poets, in no particular order, are Ilhan Berk, Turgut Uyar, Edip Cansever, Cemal Sureya, Ece Ayhan, Ulku Tamer and Sezai Karakoc.
Keep the Change is a short collection of selected poems for only three of the poets, Cemal Sureya, Turgut Uyar and Ilhan Berk as a tiny slice of the poems of the Second New, nevertheless, it is representative of the style and stands as a complete piece of derivative work while staying close to the originals.

Yet a cup of water was enough to wet your hair
We’d get full on a slice of bread and an olive or two
If I kissed you once two felt hurt
If I tried to kiss you twice three felt upset

someone opens the window and suddenly shouts
o life, you too exist
just like death
— from US NOW (SIMDI BIZ by Turgut Uyar)
