Aida Zilelian's breathtaking debut novel, The Legacy of Lost
Things, follows
three generations of a family of Armenian immigrants living
in the United
States, as they struggle with one another and against the
Old World
expectations of their community. When Araxi, the oldest
daughter of the
desperately unhappy Levon and Tamar, goes missing, the
remaining family
members are forced to confront their painful histories
together, and the role
each of them has played in driving Araxi away. Through Araxi and her family, readers are given a unique
look at the
generational and cultural tensions that both keep families
together and tear
them apart. Using spare, poignant prose, Zilelian deftly
explores the themes
of romance, duty, infidelity and guilt. Because of the
mature content, this
book is intended for adult and young adult audiences.
