The novel has two settings: in 1990 at a Los Angeles retirement home that actually exists where Armenian survivors live, and in 1915 Turkey where the forced relocation and extermination of Armenian Christians occurs. The scenes of 1915 are brutal and are some of the most harrowing I’ve ever read. It’s difficult to keep reading at times. But there is a sliver of hope in all of this despair.

Such a sad and desperate story about a family caught up in the Armenian genocide of 1915 and a grandson’s journey to Los Angeles in 1990 to secure the dismissal of a 90-year old woman’s rights to a Turkish family’s house that his grandfather left her in his will. This story is quite painful and reminds us of how despicable and evil human beings can be to each other.
