About this list
Notos Magazine (Turkey), 98 Books
This is the result of Notos magazine’s 11th major literary survey, titled “En Önemli 100 Çeviri” (“The 100 Most Important Translations”). The Turkish literary magazine asked 279 writers and translators to each nominate up to 10 translated books published in Turkish, resulting in a ranked list of 100 titles. The list focuses on translations that have had lasting cultural and literary value in Turkey and reflects the collective judgment of the literary field regarding quality translation and enduring influence. Many entries are classic works of world literature in their most recognized Turkish renditions. It is considered the most comprehensive translation-focused survey in the Turkish literary sphere to date.
