'Musa Dagh stood beyond the world. No storm would reach it, even if one should break' It is 1915 and Gabriel has returned to his childhood home, an Armenian village on the slopes of Musa Dagh.

'Forty Days will invade your senses and keep the blood pounding. Once read, it will never be forgotten' The New York Times Translated by Geoffrey Dunlop and James Reidel
