  • Cihan Aktas (born January 15, 1960) (Turkish: Cihan Aktaş) is a Turkish writer, researcher and journalist. She is the sister of Turkish poet and writer . Best known for her short story collections, Aktas has published more than forty books of fiction and non-fiction, including her best seller novel Write Long Letters To Me and her well-researched commentary book The Poetry of the East: Iranian Cinema which is an academic favorite on the subject. She was a political newspaper columnist in 1980's, focusing her research papers and articles on women who experienced a traumatic social transformation in Turkey; and has published several books on topics such as exploitation of women, gender and identity politics, and hijab in public space, as a hijabi woman herself. Aktas has been described as a "strong feminist in a minimalist sense" and her literary style as "impressionist fiction". Her female characters "do not give concessions on their identity" and "usually has reached the climax of a longlasting problem." Her novels have been described as a leap forward within the Turkish literature, which traditionally women were the second or third characters. She is married with two children and currently lives in Istanbul. (en)
