| Description | “This text is like a Russian road: uneven, full of bumps and potholes, with roadworks in the middle of the route. I have no map for Seryoga’s life, so all I can do is move forward by touch.” In this book, Egana Dzhabbarova attempts to reconstruct the short biography of her half-brother Sergey, born from her father’s extramarital relationship. Following the route that led him to an early and tragic death, the author discovers that Sergey’s story also contains the story of Russia in the late 1990s and early 2000s, with its ethnic tension, poverty, struggle for survival, epidemic of addiction, and crisis of identity. At the same time, turning to her dead brother’s fate becomes an act of love and remembrance, the only way to connect the scattered events of his life with her own and to overcome a fracture that is cultural, religious and existential. |
