Description
Silence isn't a large part of the inheritance Léa received from her Téta, her beloved Armenian grandmother, who has just died at the age of one hundred and seven. Regularly over the years her large Armenian family would gather around Téta, and she would tell stories. But there is one story that she refused to tell.
Now Léa wants to find out and understand the story of her ancestors. Rima Elkouri, with great sensitivity paints the portrait of a family that wills itself to survive.
