And what a pity that is: a dash of curiosity is all it takes to stumble upon treasures we never expected.' A shy young man leaves his home in rural Turkey to learn a trade in 1920s Berlin. The city's crowded streets, thriving arts scene, passionate politics and seedy cabarets provide the backdrop for a chance meeting with a woman, which will haunt him for the rest of his life. Emotionally powerful, intensely atmospheric and touchingly profound, Madonna in a Fur Coat is an unforgettable novel about new beginnings and the unfathomable nature of the human soul. With an introduction by David Selim Sayers ‘You think you know yearning . . . you think you know the fleeting nature of happiness . . . you think you know unrequited love, you think you know lyrical writing . . . and then you read Madonna in a Fur Coat’ Jack Edwards ‘The surprise bestseller ... read, loved and wept over by men and women of all ages’ Guardian Review: Must Read - One of my favourite books that i will not stop recommending to people throughout my life; So beautifully written and thought.

Arrived in great condition too. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Easy Read *by B***E on 6 May 2026* Enjoyed the read. ### ⭐⭐⭐ Short & Pleasant Tragi-Romantic Drivel *by C***7 on 26 April 2026* In General It's a well-written, interesting, slow-paced tragi-romance story, that reveals its characters internal qualms about themselves and their relationships, some level of those which are very rarely expressed in real life, but with which the reader can readily sympathise. Particularly dialogued is a desperate precious pure-hearted longing for a unique love pitted against apprehension, a wall of preperceptions and seemingly unassailable expectations. It's not terribly exciting in any regard, though may perhaps have been for the retrospectively feeble-hearted unstimulated romantics of the time with no multi-channel televisions, CGI action thrillers, nor hard-core pornography at their fingertips. That said, it is most pleasant and evocative to experience second-hand this slower sepia-paced life with its incessant trivial observations of minutiae long-gone and ever-present. Perhaps, if I read it in the bleak mid-winter, rather than in spring, I might be more touched by the desperate lonely sentiment of it all... Of the Subject(/Object) Character (Note, this reflection was written before the full conclusion of the story.) We must all content ourselves with aspects of reality we cannot change. Maria was possessed of a type of human conditional craving that can never be sated, always wanting something else, something more, something total and profound, a perfect lasting connection to her own self-obsessed zharring personas, skipping just ahead of her, a figment that could never be realised. The like of which leads so many to addictions. She was bereft in her dissatisfied solitude, forever vainly seeking that missing piece of her puzzle. She needed to calm the heck down and get over herself. So did Raif. Maybe even more so. Jebus heck. ## Frequently Bought Together - Madonna in a Fur Coat - White Nights - Letters to a Young Poet (Penguin Classics) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.tn/products/247315040-madonna-in-a-fur-coat-sabahattin-ali-penguin-classics](https://www.desertcart.tn/products/247315040-madonna-in-a-fur-coat-sabahattin-ali-penguin-classics) --- *Product available on Desertcart Tunisia* *Store origin: TN* *Last updated: 2026-08-08*
