Svazlian is an ethnographer and folklorist at the Armenian Academy of Sciences. Since the mid-1950s she interviewed Armenian survivors of the Turkish Genocide of Armenians.Those efforts are presented in this volume. It is a courageous work for the most part done in the Armenian S.S.R. and Turkey where Svazlian's inquiries entailed risk to herself and her interviewees. Svazlian also collected the songs these survivors had brought with them from their cities and villages of origin. Many are responses to the Genocide itself. The interviews are short but their very large number and pointedness capture the personal horrors of the gneocide very well. This book makes a unique and invaluable contribution to genocide documentation.
