A fervent nationalist patriot, a socialist whose humanistic views tran- scended barriers of race and country, Nazim Hikmet is considered one of Turkey's very foremost modern poets... and yet for many years his works were banned in his native country and he himself suffered long exile.

fizeram escorrer o sangue de nossos filhos. "
