But the time has expired the shepherds.As Basarbaj steals the last four of the wolf pups, begins a tragedy that the world of the shepherds destroy the wild.Tschingis Aitmatov in this novel spans a wide berth on a variety of venues and through history: from Moscow to the steppes of Mujunen-Kum and to the glaciers at the Ala-Möngkü, from the present to the events on Golgotha, where Jesus of Nazareth, and Pontius Pilate, argue about what really makes us human.
