WRITE IN ARMENIA 2022 ALUMNI SAM KHACHATRYAN'S NOVEL YEREVAN BLUES GOT PUBLISHED

2022 Write in Armenia International Writing Camp alumni Sam Khachatryan’s new novel entitled Yerevan Blues has been published recently by EDGE publishing house. We congratulate Samvel on this success!

The novel Yerevan Blues is based on the video recordings of the rehearsals of the performance Shadows staged by actors Tigran Mirzoyan and Nune Hakhverdyan. According to the idea, the rehearsals were supposed to end in 2023 with the premiere of an anonymous theater group on the stage of the Stanislavsky Theater.  However, with the sudden interruption of the rehearsals and the cancellation of the performance, the course of action deviates from the general logic, implying more drastic and unexpected events. The videos were transcribed thanks to Tigran’s friends, and they are presented in book form for the first time.
