Süleyman Tarık Buğra (2 September 1918 – 26 February 1994) was a Turkish journalist, novelist and short story author. He was well-known author at Republican literature in his country. He was honoured as a State Artist in 1991. 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.[1] His hometown was effective on Buğra's literatural identity. He preferred to signify this town in most of his works.[2] Buğra graduated from primary school and secondary school in the same town.

In the 1960s Buğra was part of the Club of the Enlightened (Turkish: Aydınlar Kulübü) of which ideology was a synthesis of Turkism and Islamism.[3] The other major members of the group included Arif Nihat Asya, Kemal Ilıcak, Ali Fuat Başgil and Süleyman Yalçın.[3]
