Biography
Biography
Buğra is the father of scientist Ayşe Buğra.
Buğra was born on 2 September 1918 in Akşehir, Konya, son of criminal judge Mehmet Nazım from Erzurum and Nazike from Akşehir. His hometown was effective on Buğra's literatural identity. He preferred to signify this town in most of his works. Buğra graduated from primary school and secondary school in the same town. In the 1960s Buğra was part of the Thinkers Club (Aydınlar Kulübü) of which ideology was a synthesis of Turkism and Islamism. The other major members of the group included Arif Nihat Asya, Kemal Ilıcak, Ali Fuat Başgil and Süleyman Yalçın.
