The work of Burn Zhalmauyz Kempir contains stories of young brides in Central Asia (kelin) who were not accepted into a new family after marriage, were demonized, slutshamed, subjected to psychological or physical violence because of otherness, disobedience to generally accepted norms in a patriarchal society. This piece is a parallel to European and African witches’ stories, ordinary women whom the state and society have turned into evil figures in order to control their behavior, reproductive capabilities, and sexuality.
*Zhalmauyz Kempir is a demonic creature, a witch in Kazakh mythology.
*The stories of Tajik women are recorded by Nazira Karimi.
