Abstract
In Germany, new works of authors with migration background are published almost every day. According to statistics, in Germany Turks are in majority among other nations. Accordingly, there are also more authors and poets among this group who use the German language to get their works to the readers. This type of literature is defined in various terms such as guest workers’ literature, intercultural literature or hybrid literature. What is the difference of migration literature? How these works are perceived by Germans and especially by their own countrymen?? What is the feedback authors receive from their own country and mostly notably how is the translation of these works interpreted? Has it been easier for translators to translate such works compared to their colleagues? This article aims to answer these questions with reference to E.Sevgi Özdamar’s works, particularly ‘’The Bridge of the Golden Horn’’. She is only one of many writers with migration background who are productive in their new culture.
