"Enigma" is Karien Bredenkamp’s debut collection of 56 surrealist illustrations and poems that delve into themes of intimate love, identity, integrity, and the longing for an authentic life. Through integrating symbolic illustrations and poetry, she activates the subconscious mind to take you on a journey into the deepest parts of the human soul.

More than just a poetry book, "Enigma" is a voyage that will challenge you to embrace your own authenticity and core identity. After years of suppressing her true self, Karien embarked on a quest of integrity through poetic & artistic self-expression in order to shed all false personas she had adopted over the years. She captures this never-ending process in "Enigma", where she invites you to embark on your own whimsical journey of self-discovery.

The book is very interesting with the drawings and poems that seem to go with them. Some tend to make you think about what and how she came about making them.

Enigma, An Interesting Read

As I have looked at the pictures Karien drew, the poem beside it seems to tell some of the story she is getting across in the book. I bought 2 other books for my son and daughter, so they and their family can enjoy it, too.

Take this journey!

This book is an extremely intimate journey into the mind and soul of Karien. It is amazing how she frames her personal truths in ways that challenge her readers to be honest with themselves. Many of her illustrations and poems guided me through my own introspective journey of self-discovery. I can’t recommend this book enough. Thank you Karien. Thank you for sharing your story and talents with the world.
