Description
Chingiz Aitmatov is one of the greatest native writers of the 20th century, an author whose talent is impossible to describe. This genius prose writer’s pen is equally capable of realist and fantastical prose, parable and dystopia, memoir, journalism, and historical literature. What’s more, Aitmatov’s imagination creates the most unusual and bizarre combinations of these genres—works of postmodern depth and refinement.
“Cassandra’s Mark.” A dystopia that is in no way inferior to the most famous works of this genre… A dark, powerful, and profound story about humanity deprived of the future. The children who are born foresee their fate… Their mothers, marked with the mysterious “Cassandra’s Mark.”
