About the Book
From 1910 to 1918, the Armenian, Greek, and Jewish populations were under the rule of the Turkish government, known as "The Young Turks." Thousands of Armenians endured torture, brutality, and forced deportations—yet their stories have largely gone unheard.
The narrative emerged from a series of conversations around the dinner table, shared between my parents and other surviving family members. It is an oral history of my family’s survival during the massacres of 1910 to 1918 and their lives through 1991.
To maintain their authenticity, these stories are documented exactly as they were told, without adhering to a strict chronological order. One story often sparked the memory of another, weaving together tales from different times and places. This approach reflects the natural rhythm of oral storytelling, capturing the fluidity and richness of memory.
