Nâzim Hikmet is Turkey's best-known poet and one of their most recognizable historical figures. James H. Meyer situates Nâzim's fascinating international life story within the context of his border-crossing generation of Turkish communist contemporaries, addressing changing attitudes in the 20th century toward borders and the people who cross them.

Tells the story of the pan-Turkists, a group of Muslim activists who became involved in a wave of revolutions taking place in Russia (1905), Iran (1906) and the Ottoman Empire (1908), demonstrating how theirs is part of a larger history of trans-imperial Muslims, the Russian-Ottoman borderlands, and the late imperial age.
