Книга, несмотря на советскую пропаганду ближе к концу книги всё-же рисует множество интересных картин жизни Бухары 1900-х. Из послесловия: "автор ввёл читателя в лачуги бедняков, провёл по кварталам ремесленников..мы побывали на свадьбе у богатого бая.." и т.д. Всё описано очень реалистично, я словно побывала на экскурсии в этом древнем городе: улицы, переулки, бухарский арк, мечети, кельи. Живые истории бед и радостей простых людей. До прочтения этой книги я и не подозревала об их таком жёстком укладе жизни, участи и жизни рабов, суровой правде о многожёнстве, обычаях и традициях.
