By Florence Soghoian

A moving story of the Armenian Genocide, this book tells the personal journey of a mother and daughter as they miraculously live through the violence. The author asks what her mother and grandmother had in them that allowed them to endure the atrocities, the only two of a family of 18 to survive.

Their deep religious convictions and strength of character gave them the faith and hope not to give up. So beyond revealing a very well-documented period of history, there is an underlying message in this sensitively-written portrait for everyone: no matter how terrible life may seem, do not give up.

This book is a fascinating story of an experience that almost every Armenian family can be connected to.
