Survivors: An Oral History of the Armenian Genocide: summary, description and annotation

We offer to read an annotation, description, summary or preface (depends on what the author of the book "Survivors: An Oral History of the Armenian Genocide" wrote himself). If you haven't found the necessary information about the book — write in the comments, we will try to find it.

Between 1915 and 1923, over one million Armenians died, victims of a genocidal campaign that is still denied by the Turkish government. Thousands of other Armenians suffered torture, brutality, deportation. Yet their story has received scant attention. Through interviews with a hundred elderly Armenians, Donald and Lorna Miller give the forgotten genocide the hearing it deserves. Survivors raise important issues about genocide and about how people cope with traumatic experience. Much here is wrenchingly painful, yet it also speaks to the strength of the human spirit.
