White steppes
9.99 €
The beginning of the 20th century. Young Zukhra, raised by her father to worship God, respect elders, and protect the weak, marries a neighbor named Shakir, whom she fell in love with as a child.
The young family's timid, pure happiness is first destroyed by another childhood playmate, Akhat, who is unrequitedly in love with Zukhra, and then by the Civil War, which results in Shakir going missing.
Zukhra faces famine, betrayal, and the loss of loved ones, the shattering of her former beliefs, repression, and the Great Patriotic War.
But until the end of her days, she maintains her faith in the White Steppes—a place where only happy people live... A place where there are no wars, hostility, or quarrels, but only love, acceptance, and justice.
Salima was born later, in a more peaceful and less turbulent time, when it seems that a person is free to choose their own destiny. To decide for themselves where to live, whom to love, with whom and how to build a family. But her chosen one, Islam, cannot choose between her and his rival, who has not received the approval of his categorical mother, but has firmly settled in his heart...
The path of Zuhra and Salima offers an opportunity to understand the lives of ordinary people against the backdrop of the great events that took place in 20th-century Russia.
