This work, which was first published as a book in 1943, was published by Sabahattin Ali as "Big Story" in Hakikat newspaper between 1940 and 1941. It consists of a 48-episode series written under the title.
He also made political references to the Turkey of the period, where those who were not well-off could not find jobs in government offices.
The subject of the book is the author, who was dismissed from his job as a banker, and gets a job with his old friend Hamdi, with the help of him. His roommate, Raif Efendi, is a neutral-tempered person. He responds calmly to even the most violent events. Raif Efendi, who is living his last days in his sick bed, asks the author to burn the diary he kept. The author says that he will do this only after reading and the story of Madonna in the fur coat begins. Raif is someone who is interested in fine arts. During the war years, his father was worried about the square remaining empty and wanted to send him to school. He will go to Germany and learn the intricacies of soap making and return to Turkey to take over the factory. The painting of Madonna in a fur coat, a portrait of Maria Puder, which he saw at an exhibition in Berlin, involuntarily attracts him. Raif only follows his heart.
It is Sabahattin Ali's most read work. Although there are occasionally boring parts, it is generally a fascinating book that can be swallowed in one bite. Since the copyright has already been lifted, you can find it at an affordable price and gift it to your loved ones.
I wish you a pleasant reading and thank the 1K team for offering us such a beautiful medium.
