Song of Life-Collected Poems

Everest Publications presents all of Nihat Behram's poems, written since 1967 and spread over 15 poetry books, to its readers in a single volume, together with the unpublished 16th poetry book consisting of his last poems. In other words, the Song of Life is the poetry collection of Behram, one of the distinguished representatives of Turkish poetry, spread between 1967 and 2004.

An important feature of Behram's poetry is that it always remains fresh and young in people with the feeling of the day it was first read, from anger to compassion, from joy to pain. Behram, who has perhaps been the subject of the most political accusations among recent writers, has brought depth and momentum to Turkish poetry by delicately weaving nature, love and the joy of life, without abandoning his oppositional attitude...
