内容简介

Set in 1915-1917-the years of the Ottoman Turkish government's brutal campaign that resulted in the deaths of more than a million Armenians- Three Apples Fell from Heaven is a breathtaking look at a time marked by unspeakable horror and remarkable courage.

"The fierce beauty of her prose both confronts readers with many breathtaking cruelties and carries us past them...But the novel is much more than a catalog of horrors, however brilliantly described. It is also about love and tenderness, the pleasures of custom and ritual, the moments of unexpected generosity and courage and, above all, the necessity of remembering-oneself, one's family, one's language, one's history." (Margot Livesey, The New York Times Book Review )
