According to the author, she started to work on this publication in 2012.

- “At that time we went to China. We worked a lot in the library, in the archive. We communicated with writers who specialized in writing history. It is worth to mention that there is a magazine named after Sujumbike in China. She wrote poetry, called “baits”. Our aim during our visit to China was to collect all her writings and to include them into a book”, - said Sharbanu Beysenova in one of her interviews.

It should also be noted that on the initiative of Sharbanu Beysenova and her colleagues, one of the streets of the new developing district of Astana was given the name of the ruler of the Kazan Khanate, Sujumbike in 2017.

In her book, Sharbanu Beysenova called the main character “Inzhu”, which means “A Pearl” in the Qazaq language. A beautiful girl who lived in the Middle Ages, was an excellent horse rider and was a master in shooting with the bow.

But why did she die so young? The author gives her own version: she died because of unhappy love. Some historians support her assumption.

Sharbanu Beysenova’s writing is wonderful and easy to read. The book is very well designed.

At the beginning of 2013, Sharbanu Beisenova’s book “Sarah Sanlak” (“The Magnificent Sarah”) was published. This work is devoted to a bright personality in the history of Qazaq culture - Sarah Tastanbekkyzy. She was a famous akyn (poet-improviser) of her time. Her thoughts and the pain of the soul are reflected in her poems and songs.

“Sarah did not write her works on paper, her poems had been passed from generation to generation by word of mouth. Later, the akyn herself expressed indignation about this fact. She regretted that her words had been “blown away by the wind”. Exactly these words pushed us to create the book. We would like today's young generation to know about the outstanding personalities of the Qazaq people”, said Sharbanu Beysenova.

The book of 4 parts includes all collected works of Sarah Tastanbekkyzy, poems and prose, which other poets and writers devoted to the akyn, as well as biographical data about the poetess. A circulation of the edition is 2 000 copies.

An introduction to the book under a title “My Venus” was written by a well-known Qazaq poetess, the national writer of the Republic of Qazaqstan Fariza Ongarsynova.

Sarah Tastanbekkyzy lived in the period between 1853-1907. She became the most popular thanks to her aitys (“aitys” is an akyns’ song competition) with another Qazaq akyn-improviser Birzhan-sal Kozhagululy.
