Murat Nemet-Nejat's page

Murat Nemet-Nejat writes poetry, translates poetry and sometimes rewrites poetry. He is an American poet who chooses to speak with a Turkish accent.

You can get to know him a little better by paying a visit to his humble home at this site. The page contains various examples of his work, translations and essays.
