Yerevan /Mediamax/. The presentation of "Operation Nemesis: Soghomon
Tehlirian" book authored by Paolo Kossi, Zhan Gianni and Zhan Varuzhan
took place today.
The book presents in comics Operation Nemesis and the history of the
assassination of main perpetrator of the Armenian Genocide Talaat
Pasha by Soghomon Tehlirian.
Co-Author of the book Zhan Varuzhan Sirapian said that the idea of the
project occurred four-five years ago and only now they got an
opportunity to turn it into reality.
"Everybody knew about Soghomon Tehlirian but very few knew about
Operation Nemesis. Importantly, only the Turks who were sentenced by
the Turkish Court and fled were assassinated; no innocent person
suffered. It's not a terrorist act but an act of revenge", said the
book co-author.
He noted that in Armenia the book was published in 400 copies in
Armenian and in Russian. Earlier, the book was published in French,
English and Greek. 2000 copies of the book have been sold in France.
The book will be also published in Turkish and German.
Speaking about the genre of the book, Deputy Minister of Culture
Nerses Ter-Vardanyan said that historic events are depicted quite
extensively in literary and scientific literature, while comics
facilitate their advocacy.
"Operation Nemesis: Soghomon Tehlirian" book was published in Armenian
and Russian by "Areg" Publishing House with the support of the
Armenian Ministry of Culture and Chobanyan Institute of Paris. It is
dedicated to the Armenian Genocide Centennial.
