This is a collection of stories by one of prominent Armenian writers Vahan Totovents (1893-1938). After graduating from the University of Wisconsin Totovents returned to Yerevan, Armenian in 1922, where he produced poems in prose and verse, short stories, novellas, novels, critical and biographical works, comedies, dramas, translations from Shakespeare, etc. Criticized for failing to produce works with "proletarian" content, Totovents refused to conform and was eventually arrested and exiled to Siberia. Very little is known about his last years. Sarepig Manoogian, his official biographer, simply informs us that Totovents "died at the height of his creative powers leaving behind many unfinished projects..."
