Urkiye Mine Balman

Urkiye Mine Balman (January 29, 1927 - April 28, 2018), born in Lefke, was a Turkish Cypriot author and poet who graduated from the Cyprus Turkish Teachers' Training College in 1946 and worked as a teacher in Cyprus.[1][2]

Balman has written on a wide variety of genres, but her works are mostly romantic poems describing sometimes a lonesome village girl or country life and long-distance romances. Balman has published her works in Yeşilada, Türk Dili, and Türk'e Doğru literary magazines in Turkey.[3] Some of her poems have also been set to music by Turkish Cypriot musicians.

gollark: It's quite difficult and complex, and if you do it people may complain that your OS is a virus.
gollark: I mean, `test` is no longer a directory - because it doesn't exist - but your working directory is that.
