Woe is Life


Author: Zaira Arsenishvili


The events described by the prominent screen writer unfold in Telavi, a small Georgian town in the 1920-50s. Following the lives of three women, a reader can observe the developments in the history of the country: the lifestyles of the locals, as well as the Georgians of the period in general, their culture and aspirations, global political events and the Soviet terror of the 1930s.


Praise:

“An unadorned and highly talented rendition of the tragic events that befell Georgia in the 1930s.”
