Translated by H. L. (Henry Leyford) Gates

Ravished Armenia, written by Aurora Mardiganian in 1918, recounts her traumatic experiences during the Armenian Genocide. The narrative details her family's persecution and her harrowing journey of survival, including being kidnapped and sold into slavery. Mardiganian's account serves as a poignant personal narrative that highlights the atrocities faced by Armenians under the Ottoman Empire. The book was later adapted into the silent film 'Auction of Souls' in 1919, further amplifying its historical significance.
