Which accursed language? Didn’t you just write that you can’t read them in the originals?


They are someone who lets present day politics dictate their whole life. They probably don't think German is an accursed language and wouldn't despair at reading Faust in the original. Neither would they think twice about reading Hemingway in the original - despite Hiroshima and Nagasaki. They only get outraged by $latest_conflict.


Sounds like Russian humor. Family calls it the black speech of Mordor because of the looks you get speaking it in public here.


I can read originals too. And I did. And I think I liked Chekhov at some point in my life. But now seeing what people who grew up on this literature are up to, what their morals really sums up to leaves me no desire to ever touch it again


Thank you so much for this comment. I’m a part of the nation who suffers a lot from this, and never thought it would be happening in 21st century


Uzbek food is very popular with all people from the former USSR. So there will be a lot more demand than just Uzbek-Americans.


Totally. I take my family to the kosher Uzbek places here in NYC for just that reason.
