Abstract
The Soviet prison as a reflection of a totalitarian country is shown in numerous
literary and documentary texts. The hellish reality of Soviet prisons and exile camps
is well-captured in the famous work of the Nobel Prize winning writer, Aleksandr
Solzhenitsyn’s “The Gulag Archipelago”, in the stories of Vladimir Shalamov and
others.
Chabua Amirejibi’s last novel, Gora Mborgali, was published in 1996. The book
is autobiographical, but, at the same time, integrates all the important elements of a literary text. The hell of Soviet life, the Soviet prison, prison break, persecution, a life
full of danger, and, at the same time, the protagonist’s memories and self-reflection
– this is the main storyline of the book. There are two main times in the novel: the
representation of the memory of the present and the past, the narrator’s childhood and
youth, the ancestors’ stories, the colorful pictures of Tbilisi, completely contrast with
the present: with imprisonment, prisons and camps, prison break, with hundreds and
thousands of kilometers of tundra and taiga spent in persecution.
Temur Babluani’s novel “The Sun, the Moon and the Wheat Field (Manushaka is
waiting for me)” was published in 2018. The book tells about the life of a youngster
from Tbilisi, who accidentally got into prison, from where he escapes. The steppes of
Russia, hundreds of kilometers spent in persecution, give rise to many parallels with
texts of the same genre. One of the central themes of the novel is Tbilisi of the 70s
and 90s, the Soviet and post-Soviet eras.
In the present report, we will talk about the artistic representation of the Soviet
prison and the prison break based on the novels of Chabua Amirejibi and Temur
Babluani. We will draw attention to the following concepts: memory, Tbilisi, exile,
Soviet prison, prison break.
