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.
