In the short story "The Potter’s Son" Aksel Bakunts intertwines autobiographical elements with fiction, creating a poignant narrative that authentically portrays Ando as his childhood friend, despite not explicitly addressing their familial ties. The story follows Ando’s journey—from leaving school to becoming an electrician, joining the revolutionary movement, and ultimately establishing a life with his family in Baku. In the narrative, Bakunts explores themes of heritage, friendship, and the contrasts between rural and urban life in early 20th-century Armenia.
