Pomegranate Garden

By Haydar Ergülen

Edited by Mel Kenne, Saliha Paker and Caroline Stockford A remarkable new selection from the preeminent Turkish poet, Haydar Erg len The poetry of Haydar Erg len unquestionably draws upon and expresses many of the basic forces that continue to shape Turkish culture and literature; however, as with most of the best poetry produced anywhere, its central focus is the common, down- to-earth concerns of humanity itself. At the core of Erg len's work is the pervasive sense of poetry-writing as an inseparable part of life: that the co-existence of poetry, goodness and love is indispensable to the poet as a human being. The poems have been translated by Mel Kenne, Saliha Paker, Caroline Stockford, Arzu Akbatur, G k enur elebioglu, Nilg n Dungan, Arzu Eker Roditakis, Clifford Endres, Idil Karacadag, Elizabeth Pallitto, Selhan Savcigil Endres, Ipek Seyalioglu, and Sehnaz Tahir G r aglar.
