    Author gives some advice to university students

    .4:00pm Friday 8th March 2013 in News .


    Armineh Ohanian ARMENIAN author Armineh Ohanian spoke to students at
    Oxford University yesterday about her latest novel.

    The grandmother from New York read extracts from The Apple Tree
    Blossoms in the Fall, a book based on her own experiences. She also
    ran a workshop on how to write about personal experiences. The event
    was organised to mark International Women's Day.

    Ms Ohanian, who is in her 70s, said: `It is a book that talks about
    the journey of the life of a Christian woman born and raised in
    pre-Islam Iran.

    `It is about adventures and the challenges she faces in life, and how
    she overcomes all those challenges.'

    Ms Ohanian left Iran with her husband and daughter when she was 25
    years old, living in various countries in Europe before settling in
    New York, where she has been based for the past 30 years.
