	As soon as she steps out of the van,...

As soon as she stepped out of the van, Hana was blinded. The sun reflected off the bright surrounding cliffs, creating a stillness and warmth that made her instantly sweat inside her winter jacket. She slid on her sunglasses, and when her eyes adjusted, she saw shapes – squares, arches and rectangles – carved into the limestone pinnacles and cones that surrounded the canyon. A honeycomb of windows and doors, entrances to houses of ancient people long dead – returned to the dust that settled over everything here on the central plateau of Anatolia. The other travellers from the tour party disembarked from the van and shuffled towards the gate of the open-air museum. They were a spectrum of bright puffy jackets, holding selfie sticks aloft and stopping occasionally to gather in colourful, smiling flocks. The tour guide, Murat, yelled, [...] “Be back to the van by four thirty […]”. He laughed and sauntered over to briefly talk to a man inside the ticket booth. When he came back, he lit a cigarette, leaned against the tour van and began talking to a young woman from the group who was waiting patiently for him to return. He dragged deeply. Smoke poured from his mouth as he chuckled with his new friend. Kelly Joseph, “Dust”, 2019
