This is the fifth volume in the Turkish Poetry Today series and presents once again an exciting array of the very best from Turkey's rich poetic culture and heritage.
Trying as always to break new ground, we invite you in this issue to accompany us on a journey through Turkish poetry that will include many voices never before heard in English translation...ˮ from The Editors' Introduction
Presented here in this edition's Featured Poet section is Gülten Akɪn, whose intellect and writing have made her the greatest living Turkish poet according to a majority of Turkey's leading poets, writers and critics.
Selections from the work of nearly twenty other Turkish poets in original translations alongside biographical notes make this a superb introduction for readers new to Turkish poetry or a further treasure chest for those who have come to appreciate how rich a vein of poetry there is to explore.
Turkish Poetry Today brings us the unique flow, imagery and timbre of Turkish poetry, with translations that enable the works to sing for us in English. Truly memorable reading.ˮ Dr. Robyn Rowland, poet
