In Armenian lore, perhaps to a greater degree than in many other cultures, Mothers are revered figures. The Armenian Mother is selfless and devoted to her children, an ever-loving angelic figure to whom poems and songs of admiration flow in abundance. But what if your mother wasn't like that at all? What if your mother was abusive and cruel and you lived your childhood in fear of her?
