New e-book: The Children of “Vernatun”, Avik Isahakyan
Published on
In Tiflis, between 1899 and 1908, Ghazaros Aghayan, Avetik Isahakyan, Derenik Demirchyan, Levon Shant, and Nikol Aghbalyan gather in the attic of Hovhannes Tumanyan’s home. Their literary conversations and creative explorations unfold against the turbulent political and social backdrop of the Caucasus at the turn of the century. The trials of the times and the departure of friends change the course of their gatherings, but do not erase the traces of their close bonds and literary legacy.
