Daughters of Armenia is a historical novel written by Susan Anna Wheeler and published in 1877. The story is set in the Ottoman Empire during the late 19th century and follows the lives of three Armenian sisters, Araxie, Haigouhi, and Mariam, as they navigate the challenges of their society and the political turmoil of the time. The novel explores themes of family, love, betrayal, and resilience as the sisters confront the harsh realities of life under Ottoman rule, including forced conscription, violence, and discrimination. Araxie, the eldest sister, is forced into a marriage with a wealthy Ottoman official, while Haigouhi falls in love with an Armenian revolutionary and Mariam struggles to find her place in a world that seems to have no room for her. As the sisters face increasingly difficult circumstances, they must rely on their own strength and each other to survive. The novel also sheds light on the Armenian Genocide, which occurred several decades after the events of the story. Through the characters' experiences, the author provides a window into the lives of Armenians during this tumultuous period in history. Overall, Daughters of Armenia is a powerful and poignant novel that explores the complex interplay of love, family, and politics in a time of great upheaval. It is a must-read for anyone interested in Armenian history and culture, as well as those interested in the broader themes of resilience and survival in the face of adversity.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
