About Survivors: An Oral History Of The Armenian Genocide
Product Description 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. Review "The Millers . . . do not attempt to distance themselves from their material and do not conceal their involvement with the survivors. Yet they are fair in their judgments and do not suppress evidence of the humanity and kindness to the Armenians of many Turks who opposed the deportation and bloodshed. . . . Provides additional evidence, if such is needed, of one of the greatest tragedies of modern history."--Firoz Kazemzadeh, "New York Times Book Review From the Inside Flap "A superb work of scholarship and a deeply moving human document. . . .
