 The Dynamics of Feasting and Gift Exchange in Rural Kazakstan
In Mukhtar Auezov's celebrated novel about the Kazak poet Abai Kunanbaev, the young Abai distinguishes himself as a praiseworthy individual by gallantly assisting his kinsmen in their efforts to host a large memorial feast for Bozhei, the leader of a neighboring tribal lineage.
His efforts are doubly respected because his own father, a man of equal standing and an occasional nemesis of the deceased Bozhei, chose not to participate in the events.
