Description
Baqytgul Sarmekova's debut collection offers a sharp and honest rendering of daily life in Kazakhstan. Vivid, hilarious and unsettling, the tragicomic characters reflect the inner discord of modern Kazakh society.
The stories move between traditional and modern worlds, postsocialist and capitalist realities, as they quietly seethe just below the surface. With incisive prose, Sarmekova refuses to hold back, revealing a world both familiar and strange.
