"BARBAR [Tavshedens objekt]" er en digtsamling om brutalitet. Amina Elmi skriver om at leve med en kappet forbindelse til sin families historie, ritualer, sprog og identitet. I sine digte forsøger hun at etablere en forbindelse til alt det tabte, men tavsheden står som et tomt centrum – alt det, der ikke kan siges, fordi der ikke findes et sprog for det, eller fordi det er for smertefuldt. Det er digte om tavshed som både nødvendighed og vold. Amina Elmi (f. 1994) bliver uddannet fra Forfatterskolen til sommer. "BARBAR [Tavshedens objekt]" er hendes debut.
