This anthology is not merely a linguistic exercise. Instead, it seeks to penetrate the depths of these Armenian-Americans' creations and to grasp the psychological and sociological problems and the methods of dealing with these problems. They are not few - the Armenians just born with some Eastern rays on their subconscious - who moved to the West. And for that reason, and because of their poetry, they receive a double Birthmark.
