Book Description
The outline of Steps of IstanbulThis collection of poems contains the representative works of Turkish poet Nurduran Duman. Most of her poems are written around Istanbul, the ancient city between Asia and Europe, so her poems also have the brilliance of integration of East and West cultures. This collection of poems was translated into Chinese by Chinese poet Cao Shui and translated into English by American poet Andrew Wessels and published in Turkish, Chinese and English. There is a charming artistic conception in her poems, which is connected with Chinese traditional aesthetics. It reminds us of the mysterious blood connection between China and Turkic in the ancient Eurasian continent. Of course, her poems are modern, which modernizes the ancient images well. Her poems have a distinctive feminine color. She often embroiders her sadness and joy with textiles, needles, coils and colors, which makes people feel as fresh as fresh picked roses.

Book Description
The earliest turkish verses, dating from the sixth century A.D., were love lyrics. Since then, love has dominated the Turks’ poetic modes and moods—pre-Islamic, Ottoman, classical, folk, modern. This collection covers love lyrics from all periods of Turkish poetry. It is the first anthology of its kind in English. The translations, faithful to the originals, possess a special freshness in style and sensibility. Here are lyrics from pre-Islamic Central Asia, passages from epics, mystical ecstasies of such eminent thirteenth-century figures as Rumi and Yunus Emre, classical poems of the Ottoman Empire (including Süleyman the Magnificent and women court poets), lilting folk poems, and the work of the legendary communist Nazim Hikmet (who is arguably Turkey’s most famous poet internationally), and the greatest living Turkish poet, Fazil Hüsnü Daglarca. The verses in this collection are true to the Turkish spirit as well as universal in their appeal. They show how Turks praise and satirize love, how they see it as a poetic experience. Poetry was for many centuries the premier Turkish genre and love its predominant theme. Some of the best expressions produced by Turkish poets over a period of fifteen centuries can be found in this volume.

Book Description
Turkish Voices, written during 1989/90, is initially based on the Second New Turkish poet Cemal Süreya's first book of poetry, Üvercinka (Pigeon English), which he wrote during the 1950s, in his twenties. In this book, absolutely stunning erotic passages of uncanny psychological insight, where a nexus between pleasure and power is revealed through the lyric persona of a male seducer, are mixed with cute refrains or half-digested surrealist lines which blur the text, sentimentalizing that insight by turning the poems into general appeals for freedom, completely overlooking the victimization of the female persona, who never speaks. A work of deconstructive translation, this book offers a reworking of Uvercinka, containing fragments from different poems in the book, sometimes ending in mid-sentence, isolated, spliced together, and sometimes alterated. Fragments from other Turkish poets have been added, splitting the lyric persona, opening up its unity; finally, poems written by the author himself earlier joined the text. The result is a series of eighty-four fragments where any idea of ownership or originality or source - what poem, that is, comes from whom or where - disappears, is completely blurred. In other words, what starts with the ego and power-centered persona of the male seducer is dissolved, splintered, through a dialectic or critical confrontation with Süreya's resistant text, into multiple points of view, often of a sufferer, a victim. What one ends up with is a multiplicity of voices, an erotic poem which becomes its own critique of power. Murat Nemet-Nejat is a poet, translator from Turkish poetry, essayist and editor of Eda: An Anthology of Contemporary Turkish Poetry (Talisman, 2004).
