Tóm tắt

"In this prize-winning memoir, author Peter Balakian explores his suburban baby-boomer childhood and charts his slow uncovering of the truth of what happened to his family during the Armenian Genocide at the hands of the Turkish government." "Now in a tenth anniversary edition, Balakian sheds new light on the Armenian Genocide. With two new chapters about his journey to Aleppo and the Der Zor desert of Syria in his pursuit of his grandmother's life, Balakian brings us closer to the human dimensions of history."--BOOK JACKET.
