The Wolf Epoch: Selected Poems
One of Kazakhstan’s most acclaimed poets brings readers into a world shaped by steppe winds, ancestral memory, and quiet strength. Drawn from collections such as Time of Music, Restless Heart, and Dialogue with Tengri, these selected works speak of love, time, freedom, and identity — translated into English for the first time.
Surviving Against All Odds: The Story of One Kazakh
A gripping true story of survival and resilience. Khamza Alimov endured famine, Stalin’s camps, and the cruelty of Soviet rule — but never lost his humanity. Told by his daughter, this powerful memoir weaves personal history with the collective trauma of the Kazakh people: a moving tribute and an essential account of a little-known chapter of 20th-century history.
Signs of Silence: A Novella of Self-Discovery and Inner Peace
A novella that reads like a puzzle — the full picture comes into focus only on the last page. Its staccato rhythm mirrors the heroine’s own cadence: a simple love story woven into a complex journey of self-discovery and inner quiet.
I Have Something To Say: Selected Poems
From an engineer on the Emba oil fields to Minister of Energy and Speaker of Parliament — and, throughout, a poet. Izmukhambetov writes with the eye of a man who saw history from the inside yet never lost his feel for the eternal: the wide Zhaiyk river, the ancestral steppe, the soul of his people.
