Zuleikha by Guzel Yakhina (translated by Lisa C. Hayden ): It is 1930 in the Soviet Unionand Josef Stalin 's de-kulakization program has found its pace. Among thevictims is a young Tatar family: the husband murdered, the wife exiled toSiberia. This is her story of survival and eventual triumph. Winner of the 2015Russian Booker prize, this debut novel draws heavily on the first-personaccount of the author's grandmother, a Gulag survivor. (Il'ja), 'Written in a rich and highly visual prose... Zuleikha's story is one of injustice and pain, but also of a woman's emancipation and renewal.', 'Cinematic... The cast of characters is kaleidoscopic, from all walks of life and all drawn with a visual detail that makes them inhabit the page... Yakhina has a beautiful feel for the natural environment.', 'It is 1930 in the Soviet Union and Josef Stalin's dekulakization programme has found its pace. Among the victims is a young Tatar family: the husband murdered, the wife exiled to Siberia. This is her story of survival and eventual triumph. Winner of the 2015 Russian Booker prize, this debut novel draws heavily on the first-person account of the author's grandmother, a Gulag survivor.', 'Yakhina's prose can be exquisite, especially in sequences such as the one where Zuleikha watches prisoners escaping from the train... It is Zuleikha's perspective and the way in which she adapts that capture our attention. The unexpected birth of a son.. and her transformation from a passive to a powerful protagonist is one of the joys of Yakhina's work.', 'While many writers have attempted to comprehend Soviet history's darkest moment, Yakhina finds a way to make it new.', 'A powerful account of individual lives trapped in one of the greatest tragedies of the 20th century.', 'Yakhina's debut novel has shaken the Russian book world so deeply over its first three years of life that her second book topped the 2018 sales charts alongside international bestsellers by Dan Brown and Jojo Moyes... This tale of a woman who holds onto compassion while enduring atrocity also features cinematic narration and intricate plot construction.', 'A forceful, award-winning and debate-sparking debut novel about life in the Gulag... The novel pulsates with tension...a big, bold and fascinating book.', 'As we watch its heroine's existence devolve from an oppressive domestic servitude into something disastrously worse, Guzel Yakhina's sprawling, ambitious first novel Zuleikha reminds us just how brutal the Soviet system was... Zuleikha does an admirable job of dramatizing a historical period rapidly receding into the forgotten past... Dramatic and eventful, Zuleikha sweeps us into a distant era.', 'There's something that Guzel Yakhina succeeds in transmitting with an amazing, sharp exactness: a woman's attitude towards love. Not towards a subject of love, but towards love itself.', 'This is a powerful Russian saga, giving an immense overview of life under communist rule... This author is a master at painting an image of the world as it was then.'

Synopsis
WINNER OF THE BIG BOOK AWARD, THE LEO TOLSTOY YASNAYA POLYANA AWARD AND THE BEST PROSE WORK OF THE YEAR AWARD SHORTLISTED FOR THE 2020 READ RUSSIA PRIZE RUNNER-UP FOR THE EBRD LITERATURE PRIZE, 2020 Zuleikha is the model of a dutiful wife. Biddible and meek, she has resigned herself to brutal treatment at the hands of her cruel husband and the carping of her despotic mother-in-law. While Russia reels in the aftermath of its recent revolution, life in her small Tatar village is relatively untouched. Or so it seems to Zuleikha, until the day her husband is executed by communist soldiers. Zuleikha is exiled to Siberia and forced to leave behind everything she knows. Yet in that harsh, desolate wilderness, she begins to build a new life for herself and discovers an inner strength she never knew she had. This is a supremely ambitious epic about one woman's determination, not only to survive, but to flourish in the face of the greatest adversity., WINNER OF THE BIG BOOK AWARD, THE YASNAYA POLYANA AWARD AND THE BEST PROSE WORK OF THE YEAR AWARD Soviet Russia, 1930. Zuleikha, the "pitiful hen," lives with her brutal husband Murtaza and her mother-in-law in a small Tartar village. When Murtaza is executed by communist soldiers, she is sent into exile to a remote region on the Angara River in Siberia. Hundreds die of hunger and exhaustion on the journey and over the first difficult winter, yet exile is the making of Zuleikha. As she gets to know her fellow survivors -- among them an eccentric German doctor, a painter, and the conscience-stricken Commander Ignatov, her husband's killer --Zuleikha begins to build a new life far removed from the one she left behind. Guzel Yakhina's outstanding debut -- inspired by her grandmother's childhood memories of being exiled to the Gulag --has been translated into twenty-one languages, capturing the hearts of readers all over the world.
