О книге

«Valery Yuabov — Everything Begins In Childhood»

Author vividly recounts his early years as a Jewish boy growing up among his many relatives in Soviet Uzbekistan in the 1960s and ‘70s.

Each chapter carries us back to that childhood world, full of discoveries and events. The book allows us to feel the atmosphere in which the little Bucharan Jewish boy lived, first in the large Uzbek city of Tashkent and later in industrial, multiethnic Chirchik. Valery Yuabov’s book has drawn attention and received high praise. “… it grips the reader from the first pages. The impressions of his childhood are bright and three-dimensional…

The book urges us to think about life. It allows us to imagine that terrible time when the ruling Communist ideology perverted the fates of millions of people…” That’s how the historian Dr. David Ochildeyev, an honored scholar of Uzbekistan, wrote about V. Yuabov’s book Everything Begins in Childhood.
