New Historical Fiction on Armenian Genocide released
16:54 24.07.2014
Inspired by his grandparents' escape from the Armenian Genocide and
subsequent experiences making a new life for themselves in a new
country, author Edward Seto puts a fictional spin on their adventures
in his new historical fiction, "Seeking a Better Life: Inspired by
True Stories" (published by WestBow Press), the Broadway World
reports.
"Seeking a Better Life" covers almost 100 years of history as it
follows three generations of Armenians who fled their country in
search of Western values of freedom and democracy. Eric, the book's
narrator, is fulfilling his promise to his grandparents to write a
book about their escape from Armenia and how they met in Bulgaria,
where they met and began a new life together.
As he chronicles his grandparents' experiences, Eric realizes that he,
his wife and their two daughters faced their own challenges as
immigrants in Canada, learning English and French and adjusting to an
entirely different culture. Although not as dramatic as his
grandparents' journey, his revelation shows how, ultimately, they were
all pursuing the same basic goal: to create a better life for
themselves and their children.
