Hay Medz Man Armenian My Grandma Armenian

This first book of Aras' comic series takes us to France, to the shores of Toulon. At the starting point of the story is Algeria, and even before that, Anatolia.

Little Mahmud's life changes radically when his grandmother, whom he has never seen before, comes from Algeria. There is a secret in his grandmother's past that Mahmud cannot understand. As the grandmother becomes more and more present in her grandchildren's lives, Mahmud begins to encounter more and more traces of her mysterious past. What her grandmother wants to forget and has difficulty talking about, gradually becomes a riddle for her. As the riddle becomes clearer day by day, Mahmud will falter in the face of the interconnectedness of his roots that he begins to discover.

This lively, colorful book shows that the past is not the past, it continues to happen in the present and the future, and presents a masterfully crafted story in terms of both visuality and reading pleasure by skillfully stitching the joy of life, joy, mischief and sorrow together.
