ALL THE WAYS WE LIED by Aida Zilelian, read by Vaneh Assadourian
Vaneh Assadourian delivers this novel about a dysfunctional Armenian American family in a knowing style and understanding tone. Host Jo Reed and AudioFile’s Alan Minskoff discuss Aida Zilelian’s novel of three daughters and their struggles. Kohar, the eldest, had trouble with fertility; Lucine’s husband takes her money and disappears; and Azad, the youngest, seems lost and incapable of relationships. Assadourian adroitly captures the clipped angry tone of Takouhi, their matriarch. Together their stories create a tapestry of family life and loss.
