Anna Astvatsaturian Turcotte, author of `Nowhere, a Story of Exile,'
will be visiting the Grand Forks area Oct. 3 and 4. Turcotte is an
Armenian refugee from Baku, Azerbaijan, whose family settled in
Wahpeton, N.D., in 1992. She attended UND and received degrees in
English & Literature and Philosophy & Religion before attending law
school at the University of Maine School of Law in Portland, Maine.
She now lives in Maine with her husband and two children.
`Nowhere, a Story of Exile' was published in June 2012. Through the
diary entries of a young girl, the story documents the organized
terror in Baku, her life as a refugee, and her struggle to find
herself, all against the backdrop of the collapse of the Soviet Union.
It is based on the childhood diaries Turcotte kept as a refugee from
Baku, Azerbaijan.
Turcotte will speak the morning of Oct. 3 at Mayville (N.D.) State
University, and again that afternoon at 4:30 at the North Dakota
Museum of Art, 2611 Centennial Drive, Grand Forks. On Oct. 4, she will
speak at 11 a.m. at the UND School of Law and at 1 p.m. at the UND
Women and Gender Studies Conference in the Memorial Union.
