They Found Their Voice: Stories from Soviet Nationalities with No Written Language Before the 1917 October Revolution

They Found Their Voice: Stories from Soviet Nationalities with No Written Language Before the 1917 October Revolution

Salchak Toka
3.5/5 ( ratings)
This small book reflects the rich, many-sided and many-coloured life of the nationalities inhabiting the vast Russian Federation - from the shores of the Baltic Sea to the Pacific Ocean, from the White Sea to the snow-capped mountains of the Caucasus. Eighteen writers represent eighteen peoples and nationalities who acquired a written language after the Great October Socialist Revolution of 1917. The Avar, the Chukchi, the Kabardin, the Yukagir, the Karachai, the Buryat, the Mansi, the Darghin, and the Udeghe are separated by thousands of miles, different languages, national customs and traditions; but they are drawn together by a love for their land and their people. The writers featured in this anthology are: Yuri [Yury] Rytkheu, Alim Keshokov, Jansi [Dzansi, Dzhansi] Kimonko, Tembot Kerashev, Chimit [Cnimit] Tzydendambayev, Yuvan Shestalov, Akhmedkhan Abu-Bakar, Semyon Kurilov, Anver Bikchentayev, Raisa Akhmatova, Vladimir Sangi, Alexei Talvir, Khalimat Bairamukova, Gennady [Gennadiy] Krasilnikov, Salchak Toka, Khizgil [Hizghil] Avshalumov, Veniamin Chistalev, and Rasul Gamzatov.
