WINNER OF THE BIG BOOK AWARD, THE LEO TOLSTOY YASNAYA POLYANA AWARD AND THE BEST PROSE WORK OF THE YEAR AWARD SHORTLISTED FOR THE 2020 READ RUSSIA PRIZE RUNNER-UP FOR THE EBRD LITERATURE PRIZE, 2020 Zuleikha is the model of a dutiful wife. Biddible and meek, she has resigned herself to brutal treatment at the hands of her cruel husband and the carping of her despotic mother-in-law. While Russia reels in the aftermath of its recent revolution, life in her small Tatar village is relatively untouched. Or so it seems to Zuleikha, until the day her husband is executed by communist soldiers. Zuleikha is exiled to Siberia and forced to leave behind everything she knows. Yet in that harsh, desolate wilderness, she begins to build a new life for herself and discovers an inner strength she never knew she had. This is a supremely ambitious epic about one woman's determination, not only to survive, but to flourish in the face of the greatest adversity.

One of the world's oldest recorded folktales tells the story of a handsome young man and the older woman in whose house he resides. Overcome by her feelings for him, the woman attempts to seduce him. When he turns her down she is enraged, and to her husband she accuses the young man of attacking her. The husband, seemingly convinced of his wife's innocence, has the young man punished. But it is precisely that punishment that leads to the hero's vindication and eventual rise to power and prominence. In the West we know this tale--classified in folklore as the Potiphar's Wife motif--from its vivid narration in the Hebrew Bible. But as Shalom Goldman demonstrates in this book, the Bible's is only one telling of a story that appears in the scriptures and folklore of many peoples and cultures, in many different eras, including ancient Egypt, classical Greece, and ancient Mesopotamia, as well as post-Biblical Jewish literature, the Qur'an, and Inuit culture. Goldman compares and contrasts the treatment of this motif especially in the literature and lore of the ancient Near East, Biblical Israel, and early Islam, at the same time touching on gender issues--the status of women in Middle Eastern societies and the varying constructions of male-female relationships--and the vexed question of "originality" in the narratives of the monotheistic traditions.

This paper explores the collective memory of Guzel’ Yakhina in her novel Zuleikha opens her eyes (2015). In 2020, the novel was transformed into a television series where it reached an even larger audience. The representation of Tatar Muslim culture in this work of contemporary Russian literature and television will be analyzed. Yakhina negotiates between historical memories and old stereotypes as she frames Zuleikha’s story of acceptance into her Siberian labor camp and Soviet society. Although the Soviet Union does not exist as a physical space anymore, in recent years, Russia has developed historical memory projects that focus on the period of Stalinism (1927-1953) as a source of national pride. The positive depiction of exile seen in both the novel and television series is problematic because it promotes deculturalization and continues to erase the Muslim identity in Russia. First, analyzing the representation of a Tatar Muslim woman on television revealed a trope of unveiling held onto by the Russian contemporary audience. They linked Zuleikha to the negative stereotype of Muslim women as victims of their cultural and religious identity. The television audience saw the repeated motif “Zuleikha opens her eyes” as a call to take off Zuleikha’s veil. Secondly, the scene in the tv show where the Hagia Sophia dome is removed and replaced with the new Stalinist-style dome monument reveals an erasure of ethnic and religious identity. Finally, Zuleikha’s connection to her past ethnicity and religion is severed when the identity of Zuleikha’s son, Yusuf is transformed. His name is changed to the Russian name: Iosif Ignatov. Using the historical context of the 1930s as a teleport, contemporary media establishes Russian nationalism as the only pathway to belonging for minorities in post-Soviet Russia. Ultimately, in both the television series and novel, one’s Tatar Muslim identity is declared obsolete and must be removed. Such memories contribute to the growing influence of Russian nationalism and the development of a pan-Russian ideology.
