Anna The Bride, Kevork George Apelian (softcover)

“ANNA THE BRIDE”
(Kevork George Apelian)

Based on the story of the author’s grandmother and her family, this is the account of a girl raised in Kessab, Syria, who was betrothed but, before her wedding day, she decided to go through an adventure of her own plan.

The story captures village life, family traditions, and episodes of religious revival. Anna endures the death marches of the Armenian Genocide, which leave much of her family destitute.
