Reinventing Armenia: Poetry after the Genocide The years from 1915 to 1921 were the turning point in modern Armenian history, characterized by displacement and emigration. This brief selection of poems by iconic poets Nigoghos Sarafian, Paruyr Sevak, and Zahrad, along with an interview with the Armenian Poetry Project’s Director Lola Koundakjian, offers a sampling of the richness of post-genocide writing in this Year of the Armenian Book.
