Here In Yerevan is a book of bitter and funny stories about emigration, Armenia, and war, built on personal experience and connected by one lyrical protagonist. In December 2024, the Armenian translation of Yan Shenkman’s Here in Yerevan was published by ARI Press. Originally it was written in Russian and was published earlier in 2024. But after the great success of the book there was an evident necessity to translate the book into Armenian. And as Yan mentions in his speech, it is not a translation into a foreign language, but into the language it should have been written and read in.

Ten years in the making, “Survivors” is an ambitious photographic narrative about surviving victims of the Armenian genocide, which includes portraits, interior scenes, witness testimonies and archival photographs.
