I have to start writing. What to write? Write simply, without any mission. Write to heal... Poetry is the doctor of my soul.

Excerpt from Diary, Zareh Vorpouni, Paris, August 1930

Krikor Beledian, a leading specialist in Armenian literature, offers an in-depth analysis of Zareh Vorpouni's latest work, Journal intime.

Between introspection and literary creation, Vorpouni, genocide survivor and major figure of exile literature in Western Armenian, confronts the intimate and the universal.

Organized by the section d'études arméniennes of the Inalco.
