About the book: 1964 / Kambaraly Bobulov is a young writer, but Kyrgyz readers already know him as an interesting storyteller, possessing extraordinary humor and able to create a subtle psychological picture. In In the story “The Girl from the South,” the reader gets to know the young Kyrgyz girl Gulyaim, the family in which she lives, and the way of life and customs of her fellow villagers. The story, like the stories included in the book, ridicules and castigates everything that interferes with living in a new way, and at the same time reveals the complex inner world, the generosity of the soul of the best people of our time.
