| Summary: | This tale opens up with a scene of carnage and devastation, from the ruins of a monstary to lifeless bodies the doings of an army of young Turks. Silent Angel follows the story of five survivors, three women, a child and a Greek monk. They are forced to wander through the deserted Valley of Moush in search of a new life and a better destiny than their Armenian brothers. During the most painful moment of their lives, they become guardians of a book of inestimable value, the Book of Moush, an ancient illuminated manuscript. Believing the book to be a talisman of sorts, they vow to bring the book to safety, even to defend it with their own lives. |
