Orhan Veli Kanık (1914-1950) was a prominent Turkish poet, known as the founder of the Garip movement. He innovatively incorporated street language into poetry to challenge traditional structures. His works spanned poetry, short stories, essays, and translations, emphasizing a simple, contemporary expression in verse. Despite initial criticism and ridicule for his unconventional style, Kanık's literary contributions significantly influenced Turkish poetry during the Republic era, particularly between 1940 and 1950. His approach marked a transformative moment in Turkish literature, making it more accessible and resonant with modern themes.
