Plakha

The novel by Chinghiz Aitmatov (1928–2008) "Plakha" was first published in 1986 and became a significant event for the literature of the late 20th century. Young journalist Avdi – the main character of the novel – faces the cruelty and... indifference of the surrounding world. His life extraordinarily intersects with the fate of the blue-eyed she-wolf Akbara, symbolizing not only the strength of nature but also its vulnerability to human greed. Through the tragic destinies of man and wolf, the author speaks to us about love, betrayal, justice, and responsibility. "Plakha" is not just a story about the confrontation between man and nature, but also a deep reflection on internal struggle and redemption. The novel makes us think about how our actions affect the surrounding world and what consequences they may have for future generations.
