When Tavid Kaloustian, an Armenian drug smuggler and patriot, fakes his own death and escapes, it is only one of a series of dangerous events in pursuit of his own liberty, and championing justice for his people. As the Turkish military closes in on him and his family, Tavid is forced to make an enormous personal sacrifice to spare the lives of his fellow Armenians and to extract justice from the Turks who rule them. As World War I erupts, who will die and who will survive in this complex lethal game of ethnic pride and principles? 2015 is the year of the Armenian Genocide Centennial and as the Sandcastle Girls (another Armenian Genocide book), educated the world on the Armenian genocide, so does A Perfect Armenian (APA). Armenian kids books are hard to find that are entertaining as well as informative. APA is about Armenia and is educational for children as well as adults.
