About Sad Days Of Light
The first genocide of modern times was the 1915 Turkish massacre of the Armenians. In Sad Days of Light, Peter Balakian relives Armenia's tragic heritage. The figure of his grandmother, a survivor of the massacre, provides a dramatic center for the poet's lyrical evocation of suffering and heroism.
