The Pulse of Contemporary Turkish offers a unique glimpse into the vibrant world of Turkish poetry, featuring 170 poems by more than 60 poets, most of whom are still active today. From neo-lyrical verses to avant-garde experiments, this anthology reflects the rich tapestry of voices emerging from Turkey’s literary scene.

With a balanced representation of gender, sexual orientation, and ethnicity, this collection brings together works from poets associated with 25 different publishing houses, including both major literary institutions and smaller presses nurturing fresh talent. Oxford Turkologist Laurent Mignon provides the foreword, complemented by two introductory essays that contextualize the sociopolitical climate and literary trends shaping Turkish poetry in the new millennium and highlight key events, journals, and manifestos that have influenced the art form.
Bugra Giritlioglu is the founding editor of the queer publishing house obiçim yayinlar. In addition to a novel and three poetry collections, he has published translations in such journals as Chicago Review, Mantis, and Middle Eastern Literatures.

Daniel Scher is a senior editor at McGraw Hill Education and coauthor of numerous mathematics texts. He is the current managing editor of the publications team at OrigamiUSA.
