Narine Abgarjanová

This writer of Armenian origin writes in Russian. Her works of prose, written on a more serious note, are connected with Armenia and its simple, poetic, but also tragic world: collections of short stories People Who are Always with Me (2014), Zulali (2016) and the novel Three Apples Fell from the Sky (2015, Czech 2020), which has achieved international success and has already been published twice in Czech. The collection of short stories about human fates marked by the Nagorno-Karabakh war, To Live On, was published in 2018 (Czech 2024), not long before the war’s new act. With her novel Simon (2020, Czech 2023), Abgarjan was among the finalists for the prestigious Bolshaya kniga literary prize, where she has won the Readers’ Sympathy Priz. She is also a successful writer of children’s literature.
