Bugünlerde Bahar İndi

Turkey's universal writer Yaşar Kemal, who started writing poems in his early youth, before stories and novels, collected his poems in the book titled These days, Bahar Indi, published by Yapı Kredi Publications.
Yaşar Kemal's book named Bahar Indi These Days will meet with readers at the beginning of October; It mainly consists of masterful poems written in the 1940s, continued in the 50s and 60s, and the last one was written in 1973. In addition to the poems published for the first time, the book includes; There are also poems published in magazines named Kovan, Ülkü, Toprak, Küçük Dergi, Çig, Görüşler and in the newspapers Vatan and Aksam.

While preparing this first poetry book, Yaşar Kemal made changes in a few of the poems he chose. In addition, Yaşar Kemal's original writing was preserved in the book as it was one of the features that gave his poetry its special voice.

In the poems in the book, anger and hope, rebellion and love are intertwined. Yaşar Kemal writes a poem that would scare even the most itchy poet from its originality: It expresses the sadness, resistance and hope of Kemal Sadik, who wanted to work but was left unemployed... The book also includes the previously unpublished poems Ulas and Hello, composed by Zülfü Livaneli. .

From book editor Güven Turan's article titled "The First Book of a Hiding Poet":
"Yasar Kemal concentrated on poetry until 1945... Let's remember right away: The writing date of his first story, "Piş Öykü?", is 1946... The rest crowns the pages of the history of Turkish stories and novels, combining several poems published in the 1950s. But here is the unfinished poem of Yaşar Kemal, "poetry is a scream; This book includes five brand new, previously unpublished poems that justify the saying "an unsuppressable scream". Let's say that we heard the poems "Ulas" and "Hello", composed by Zülfü Livane and in Livaneli's voice... Now, do not focus on them from the focus of the poem. It's time. First of all, what draws our attention is that both poems are inspired by traditional folk poetry. However, despite the similarity of the patterns, they are original and not easily classified in terms of form. Is the poem "Ulas" an elegy written for Ulas Bardakci? I don't think so... There is neither complaint nor pity... No regrets, which is the basis of elegies. Contrary to a rebel poem; a poem that stands tall... Is it an epic? The foundation that prevents such a thing from happening There is one thing: He is not a narrator, he does not enumerate or narrate the heroism of Ulas. Moreover, he does not focus only on Ulas: He surrounds the murdered revolutionaries of the 1960s and 1970s during the war of Eluard and Aragon. I think "Ulas" is a poem that does not easily fit into a box, like the poems he writes. Although "Hello" uses classical folk poetry patterns, it is a poem that does not taste like a cliché. It reveals that Yaşar Kemal never abandoned the "Aşık", the "Aşık Kemal" character of his youth, throughout his writing life extending from the 1940s to the 1970s.
