29.99 €
This book is the first collection of prose by Narine Abgaryan: the novels “Three Apples Fell from the Sky” (awarded the Yasnaya Polyana Prize for 2016), “People Who Are Always with Me”, short stories and novellas. Whatever Narine Abgaryan writes about, the simple life of the inhabitants of a small mountain village, the horrors of war or childhood – all her works speak of the beauty of life. And that in any situation you need to remain human.
“There is no place for pain on the top of Khalikar. Everything is yours – in you, everything is yours – with you. Stone thresholds, a chapel dome overgrown with grass, morning fogs – falling from the tops of the hills like rivers of milk – forward, forward, there, where you can, coming close, look into the windows of the houses. A portrait of your grandmother in a blackened wooden frame, your childhood home, the graves of your ancestors in an old cemetery, a rusty village road that starts in your heart. On it are the footprints of those who have passed away. Inhale-exhale. Inhale-exhale. One, two, three, four, five... Cannot be taken away, cannot be given away. All yours are in you, all yours are forever with you."
