A book telling about the Armenian Genocide has been published in
Turkey, authored by Binnaz Oner, Agos newspaper reports.
Entitled `The Left Behind', the novel tells about the Armenian mothers
forced to hand their daughters in 1915 to Turkish families to save
their lives. Oner said she has been greatly affected by the stories of
the mothers forced to leave their children for saving the latter's
lives. `Leaving own child is worse than death for a mother. Only a
mother will understand the feelings of the other mother. Only mothers
may understand the pain of separation with a child,' she said.
Asked why she has written the book, Oner said the story of the
Armenian mothers impressed her deeply. `Each sensitive person would be
greatly touched by the story,' she said.
