YEREVAN, MARCH 30, NOYAN TAPAN. Poet Vigen Babayan is a person
gifted with exclusive talent, and the literary heritage he left is of
great value. David Sargsian, the Director of the National Library of
Armenia mentioned about this at the March 29 presentation of the poet's
"Aksoranvag" (play of exile) book. According to him, a poem was first
of all life, everyday for V.Babayan, and only then a word and line
written on a paper. He wrote what he thought, felt and lived. All the
works included in "Aksoranvag" were created in the U.S., since 1981,
when the writer appeared in that country irrespective of his will.
"For V.Babayan that country was a place of exile, and all the works
of those years he gathered under the "Aksoranvag" general title,"
D.Sargsian mentioned. In the U.S., V.Babayan worked at the Armenian
editorial of the Voice of America radio in parallel to his literary
activity. He did many translations as well, including works of Victor
Hugo, Byron, Lomonosov and other great figures.
