In this study of mine, the story of “Geçit”, which exiled Kemal Tahir pressed in his life for once, how and with whom he pressed this magazine, the troubles he went through and how the short life story of the magazine ended are all told. While we were dealing with the magazine “Geçit”, we focused on Kemal Tahir’s career and authors around him. Besides, we gave informaiton about activities of magazine and press of that period. Furthermore, we talked about the troubles that Kemal Tahir went through till he reached his career, exept for money problems. While these events were being told, we gave informaiton about Fatma Irfan Serhan, who would be his wife in the following years. Considering all these facts, we wanted to tell that the life story of an author like Kemal Tahir shouldn’t be dealt with only his formal life, besides his formal life he also had a social and political life even this type of his life must be in the foreground.
