The legendary Turkish writer Sabahattin Ali was a belated triumph in European literature. His work explored the interplay of cultures and ethnicities through the example of ordinary people, quickly winning the favor of the literary elite. "Madonna in a Fur Coat" is a poignant, Remarque-esque love story between Raif Efendi, the scion of a wealthy Ottoman family who, by fate, finds himself reduced to a minor clerk, and the German artist Maria. Set in 1920s Berlin and Ankara, the novel's atmosphere evokes the pre-war novels of Erich Maria Remarque. Much of the novel is devoted to Raif Efendi's life in Turkey and Germany, the twists and turns of his love for the German artist Maria Puder, his spiritual quest, and his torments. The hero's life in Europe unfolds against the backdrop of a masterfully depicted Germany in the period after its defeat in the First World War.
