Konusu

This exciting new edition of the poems of Nazim Hikmet adds more than twenty poems never before available in English. The Blasing/Konuk translations, already acclaimed for the past quarter-century for their accuracy and grace, convey Hikmet's compassionate, accessible voice with the subtle music innovative form, and emotional directness of the originals.

"A potent tetament to the Turkish poet's genius."—World Literature Today

"These translations are so colloquial, one forgets one isn't reading the originals."—Boston Phoenix

"Brilliantly conceived and executed, witty and passionate, and inspiring in a sense not found in most modern poems."—Booklist
