His prison writings have mobilised tens of thousands of people and inspired a revolution in the making in northern Syria, while also penetrating the walls of academia triggering debate and reflection among countless scholars. So how do you engage in a meaningful dialogue with Abdullah Ocalan when he has been held in total isolation since April 2015? You compile a book of essays written by a diverse cast of luminaries, send it to Ocalan's jailers and hope that they deliver it to him.
