Analysis and comments on On Living by Nazim Hikmet

Comment 4 of 4, added on January 5th, 2006 at 5:51 AM.

To Lori from Sweden. This internet page is dedicated to art. I felt offended when I read your note. There is no reason to offend people, when the people are exchanging their ideas on poems and art in such a decent way. There is enough craziness and rudeness out there. We do not need that sort of attitute here. Otherwise, we all, inculding you from Sweden, would be finding ourselves in horrible political and historical bloody discussions. This internet page is not the right place. Everything has its time and place. I hope one may learn and get the class act and high inspirations by reading beatiful poems. But with your act, sure you are not in the right way to achieve this. Let's keep our level and inspirations high.

This is to Ozgur from Tureky and Elif from Cyprus who say Nazim is one of the best peoms in the world. Yes, he is, but I would have liked you to be honest and I woul d have understood your appraisal of his poems if you had not digested the efforts to censure his work... an opera is made using his work yet the parts that deal with the minorities, the armenians is omitted... I hope you have an answer to that. Me too appreciate this great poet... yet I respect his work in its entire form...thanks , you see even literature is politics. Lori

He is the best poet in the world.

I have never been impressed by any other poems like his poems, as they say, u can't know what it feels like for being a mother or father without having a child, you can not understand this without knowing his life and his poems....

To understand Nazim you have to get to know his other poems and his life style. He was and will be one of the best poets in the world...
