Comments:

“Peroomian’s book grips the reader because of its human depth, the author’s devotion to her subject and her overwhelming desire ti remain faithful to her sources …. [I]t is works like this that shed light on the dark recesses of our psyche and awaken us up to the disconcerting truth that Genocide indeed exists, that it must not be tolerated and that the essential weapon in the struggle against it is awareness.”

“[V]ery valuable commentary and analysis on the Armenian Genocide that takes us deeper into the perverse understandings of the remorseless assault against us…. I see that you are breaking new ground. You have collapsed the distance between the ‘subjective’ and the ‘objective’ by mining and interpreting the cries of our most creative writers to illuminate the true dimension of the perpetrators’ savage betrayal of its own citizens…”
