Caner Malkaralı (born on September 18, 1988, in Tekirdag, Turkey) is a young novelist and a student at Robert College. His first notable work is a novel, named Keskin Faik.

Malkarali is also a notable musical prodigy, taking up the tenor saxophone at the age of three and mastering the major triad at the age of eighteen. He is playing with Caner Malkarali Band since March 2004. Identified with his ray-ban sunglasses and shirts, Caner Malkarali is truly a man of style. It is an urban legend that he has been wearing striped shirts 712 days in a row since his entrance to Robert College. Caner currently attends Vassar College.

Early Life & Childhood

Malkarali showed signs of child prodigy beginning with his early childhood. He could talk, write, spell and narrate in present tense in kindergarten. Upon the discovery of his talents, his parents tried to send him to primary school early, but upon seeing his friends often mistook his pale-skinned form for Casper and were afraid, they pulled young Caner off until the following year. This interval helped Caner mature socially - in his words, "my days of snow-white loneliness stimulated me to think and inquire," two actions he still loves today. At the same time, however, Caner became a popular Flying Dutch impostor in playing house around the neighborhood. When he graduated from primary school with great success, Malkarali moved on to middle school. He was obviously very bright and promising, he still is. When asked about Caner, his primary school teacher burst into tears and said, "the most mulayim young man I have ever encountered. Oh, the real world will hurt him so much." Malkarali was said to have a warm and reassuring smile all the time, and appeared naive, but actually hid wisdom and intelligence inside. Caner currently attends Vassar College in Poughkeepsie, NY. His best friend is Roku Fukui. His nemesis is Sebastien Bernard.

High School Years

Still very bright and promising, Caner took the High School Entrance Exam in 2003 and was extremely successful. He enrolled in Robert College as a boarder and bought twenty-eight striped shirts. Robert College's liberal environment and the Model United Nations Club helped him form his personality and his occasional wearing of t-shirts on shirts. His studies on the saxophone became more and more serious and he displayed his apparent talent in music often. His interpretation of Your Latest Trick by the band Dire Straits is very famous among Robert College students and alumni. In fact, Malkarali is so successful at interpreting this song that his audiences often find it not boring that the lyrics of the song start at 1:24.

Another aspect how his years in Robert College influenced the teenage Malkarali was the emphasis the school put on Turkish Literature. The school's strong literature department developed his curiosity for writing as a means of expressing himself and he started his studies on his first novel, Keskin Faik. Keskin Faik is a particularly strong fusion of history and literary expression, which obviously is a sign that his high school years have done him good.Malkarali, now an attractive and interesting young man, is pursued by many prep girls because of the natural aura of handsomeness that forms around him. It is only natural that this happens, because Malkarali is the way he is.
