Her father is fabric merchant Hafız Mustafa Sümer. She is the second child and only daughter of a family of four children. Her siblings are Dr. Cazip Sümer (1925-1975), playwright, actor Güner Sümer (1936-1977) and businessman Ayhan Sümer (1930). After completing her primary education in Nallıhan, she settled in Ankara with her family in 1938. After completing her secondary education at Ankara Girls' High School, she graduated from Ankara University, Faculty of Language, History and Geography, Department of French Language and Literature in 1950. Her interest in literature began with poems during her high school years, and she soon turned to playwriting. She first began writing in 1946 by publishing theater critiques in the Ulus newspaper. Her poems were published in Kaynak Magazine between 1948-50. She held various positions at TRT between 1951-1970. She wrote her first radio play, "Aşk Şarkısı" (Love Song), the year she started working at Ankara Radio. While working at the radio, she founded "Meydan Sahnesi" (Meydan Sahnesi), the first private theater in Ankara, with four of her friends who were theater actors and directors (Kartal Tibet, Üner İlsever, Çetin Köroğlu, Nur Sabuncu). She published Meydan Sahne Magazine. In 1953, she went to Paris to increase her experience and knowledge about theater. The play “Bir Piyes Yazalım”, which she wrote together with Sevim Uzungören in 1953, was staged in Ankara the same year. Married to engineer Halim Ağaoğlu in 1954, the artist continued to write plays until she wrote her first novel. She became one of the leading playwrights of the sixties and seventies with the plays she wrote one after another. Resigning from the Presidency of the TRT Radio Department in 1970 due to the seizure of TRT’s autonomy, the artist has not been involved in anything other than writing since then. In some periods of her literary life, she used pseudonyms such as “Remüs Tealada” and “Parker Quinck”. Her first novel, Ölmeye Yatmak, was published in 1973. All of her works from this first novel onwards have been the subject of intense debate. Ölmeye Yatmak formed a trilogy with the novels she later wrote, Bir Düğün Gecesi (1979) and Hayır (1989), and won many awards. As soon as her novels Bir Düğün Gecesi and Hayır were published, her second novel Fikrimin İnce Gülü was confiscated in its fourth printing. Ağaoğlu, who was sued in 1981 for “insulting and belittling military forces” regarding her novel “Fikrimin İnce Gülü”, was acquitted after a two-year trial. Ağaoğlu, who also published story books, essays, and memoirs and novels, returned to playwrighting in 1991 with Çok Uzak Çok Yakın. The archive that brought together the writings about Adalet Ağaoğlu was prepared by her husband Halim Ağaoğlu and published in 2003 under the title Herkes Kendi Kitapın İçini Tanır in memory of the 55th anniversary of Adalet Ağaoğlu’s writing. The words “You are the most beautiful accident in Turkey” spoken by Can Yücel about Adalet Ağaoğlu, who had a serious traffic accident in 1996 and was hospitalized for two years, became the title of a book in the style of a river interview conducted by Feridun Andaç with Adalet Ağaoğlu. The book was published in 2006. Almost in F - Tranquillity by Kevin MacLeod is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution license (https://creativecommons.org/licenses/...).
