Excerpt from Journey to Ararat Yet the history and results of these expedi tions are' by no means generally known either in Great Britain or the United States. Of the narratives of scientific voyages and travels pub lished abroad, comparatively 'few, and those only the most trivial, are ever translated into English. Though replete with matter of the most interesting kind, yet they are generally ei ther too cumbrous in style or too voluminous to suit a people with whom habits of busmess have generated a distaste for whatever seems pedantic or prolix. Their attractiveness thus escapes notice, and a large mine of valuable in formation; practical as Well as scientific, remains inaccessible to the English reader.

In Passage to Ararat, which received the National Book Award in 1976, Michael J. Arlen goes beyond the portrait of his father, the famous Anglo-Armenian novelist of the 1920s, that he created in Exiles to try to discover what his father had tried to forget: Armenia and what it meant to be an Armenian, a descendant of a proud people whom conquerors had for centuries tried to exterminate. But perhaps most affectingly, Arlen tells a story as large as a whole people yet as personal as the uneasy bond between a father and a son, offering a masterful account of the affirmation and pain of kinship.
