"Until the fall of 2007, Michelle Malakova’s family life was much like that of other children whose parents hate each other and have separated," writes journalist Janet Malcolm.  Then Michelle witnessed her father's murder at the hands of a hit-man hired by her own mother.
 
In her 2011 book, Iphigenia in Forest Hills, Malcolm tells the story of Daniel Malakov's murder, which shook the Bukharan Jewish community in Queens, NY.  Now in the New York Review of Books, Malcolm focuses on the aftermath.  Tension between the Malakov and Borokhova families remains charged, and the question of custody has still not been resolved.  What will happen to Michelle?

The news that you shared about Michelle Malakova is shocking. The story in the book feels to be real and experienced by the writer itself. Thank you for sharing this article and I would like to more on this topic!

Both styles require riders to have a solid seat, with the hips and shoulders balanced over the feet, with hands independent of the seat so as to avoid disturbing the balance of the horse and interfering with its performance. Thanks.
