  The Zariski closures of the orbits for representations of type A Dynkin
quivers under the action of general linear groups (i.e. quiver loci) exhibit a
profound connection with Schubert varieties. In this paper, we present a
scheme-theoretical isomorphism between a type A quiver locus and the
intersection of an opposite Schubert cell and a Schubert variety, also known as
a Kazhdan-Lusztig variety in geometric representation theory. Our results
generalize and unify the Zelevinsky maps for equioriented type A quiver loci
and bipartite type A quiver loci, as presented respectively by A. V. Zelevinsky
in 1985 and by R. Kinser and J. Rajchgot in 2015. Through this isomorphism, we
establish a direct and natural connection between type A quiver loci and
Schubert varieties. We compute an explicit relationship between Zelevinsky
permutations and the indecomposable factors of the corresponding
representations. Additionally, we present three applications of our isomorphism
with examples in order to justify its further potentials.
