Nino Kharatischwili’s latest book is a monumental family saga spanning six generations between 1900 and the present day, set in Georgia, Moscow, London and Berlin. It tells about the life of a Georgian family which has undergone several changes of political power. The author touches on the conflict between the West and the East, describes complex historical processes, revolutions and wars, frankly speaks of the abuse of power, of private human mistakes and momentous turns, as well as of the heroism of women and so on. Translated from German.
