Description
In 1930s Istanbul, a chance meeting between a Turkish man and a mysterious woman in a fur coat ignites an obsession that reshapes his sense of self. As their connection unfolds in brief, charged moments, he wrestles with desire and morality, confronting how longing can blur the line between idealization and reality. Woven through the story are themes of identity, cultural collision, and the tension between tradition and modernity, all rendered with Sabahattin Ali’s signature psychological acuity and lyrical restraint. Part romance, part existential inquiry, this haunting novel asks what we truly seek in others—and what it costs to chase it.
