Fur Madonna with a Mantle

By Sabahattin Ali

Sabahattin Ali's unforgettable novel, Madonna in a Fur Coat, is one of the most profound and moving novels in world literature. This work, which opens the doors to a great love and inner world hidden behind Raif Efendi's quiet and seemingly ordinary life, touches the most secret corners of the human soul. The novel explores the past of Raif Efendi, who appears to be an obscure civil servant in the cold and monotonous atmosphere of Ankara, and Maria Puder, a mysterious woman he met during his Berlin years and who profoundly influenced his life. Behind this seemingly ordinary life lies profound loneliness, profound love, and the struggle to hold on to life. Sabahattin Ali's simple yet striking narrative reveals the complexity of the human soul and the transformative power of love, while also confronting the reader with their own inner world. Since its publication, Madonna in a Fur Coat has earned a place in the hearts of readers not only as a love story, but also as a masterpiece that challenges human existence, loneliness, and hope.
