Commentary In Pursuance Of Books Ararat (Ararat, #1)
A family pulled apart as tradition meets the changing values and politics of the 20th century.

Historically accurate, filled with universal truths, written with a European flair, The Dukays documents that critical moment in history when power changes hands.
