This is perhaps one of the most sadly and inspirational stories I have ever heard. This story gives information about the Turkey war and how people were treated. This young boy went through a lot at a very young age. It should be read by people who were interested in Anne Frank diary because it relates to the massacre and discrimination. It should be read. Without a doubt it will make you cry. ( ) Reviewed by: Kameron (Class of 2013) “All I saw was darkness at first then the floor moved and I realized it was a floor of bodies… I could gradually make out fifty to sixty people in the small cramped hotel room.” This quote is similar to the book "Night" by Elie Weisel where it states how the Jews were forced into overcrowded cattle cars during the transport to concentration camps. Unlike "Night" this is not a book about the holocaust but rather a book about a forgotten genocide, the genocide in Turkey during 1915. This is a very informative book about the Turkish genocide of 1915, it shows the terrible things that the Armenian people suffered through. Vahan Kenderian is the main character in this book. Vahan is a young Christian boy who is the son of a wealthy lawyer, he has never had to work a day in his life until that fateful day when the police came and took away his father. That was the day that he lost all hope because soon after the police came back and murdered his two older brothers. Vahan and his family were forced to leave their home and move into a hotel that was taken over by the police and this is where the quote of how he was forced into a cramped room with fifty to sixty other people occurs. Author Adam Bagdasarian’s inspiration to write this book came from a recording of his great-uncle about his experiences during the Ottoman Turk’s attempt to kill the Armenians in 1915. Adam’s second book is “First French Kiss: and Other Traumas”. Adam is an Armenian American writer for teenagers and young adults. I personally don’t care for this book, I really don’t find it that interesting although it is informational, I don’t feel that the author centered himself on trying to interest the audience, he is more worried about the facts which can be a good thing in some cases but I don’t feel it is right for this book. Although I do not care for this book I would recommend it to someone who is looking for good and accurate information on the genocide of the Armenian people in Turkey during 1915. nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione
