    PUBLISHED IN BEIRUT

    ISTANBUL, January 15 (Noyan Tapan). The first volume of the the
    two-volume book "Modern Armenian Writers of Istanbul" was published in
    Beirut. The book was prepared for publication by Karo Abrahamian, a

    contains works of 23 prose-writers. The third part about drama is
    constructed according to the same principle: first a leading article,
