Description
The book is devoted to Olga Tumanyan, the wife of Hovhannes Tumanyan. Her life, which extended a whole century, involved everything -- from great love to the hardest losses and deprivation. This surprisingly strong woman was not only a housewife but a wonderful mother of ten children; she was the poet’s muse, who cared about him and created all the necessary conditions for his art. It was her who preserved Tumanyan’s writings and archives, his precious library and cabinet, which was gifted to the Armenian nation. It was her idea to create the poet’s museum in Yerevan.


The book includes Olga Tumanyan’s memoirs, the story of her life, family photos, letters to her relatives, memories of grandchildren and great-grandchildren. ​The book is intended for a wide range of readers.
