Private Life

In the gripping duology by Nazym Zhankezinova, the fates of different women living in a changing Kazakhstan intertwine. From ballerinas and businesswomen to market traders and housewives, their lives unfold through the lens of love, loss, ambition, and social change.

Set against the vibrant descriptions of the old streets of Almaty, the stories are filled with intrigue, hope, and disappointment. The heroines face moral dilemmas, fight for their place in this life, and seek answers to eternal questions about happiness and self-fulfillment. «Private Life» is a poignant look at modern society, where personal dramas reflect the changes within it; it is a story about ourselves, our struggle for happiness, and how we shape our destiny in a world of change.
