TO SEE FARTHER
Dear readers, it's my pleasure to introduce to you my new eBook,
a new story, titled "To see farther". It is written only in Armenian, that's
why I would like to give a brief summary of the book.
One day in the underground one adult blind man, being
accompanied by a young man, entered the wagon and sat right in front
of a young writer. The blind man began to talk with the young author
and they got acquainted. Then on the second day they met again and

would become the whole world for her and he would always try to shine
for making the world a brighter place for her. When Aram noticed the
young writer in the metro he told his Dad about that, so Avetis decided
to ask him to help in creation of a special book of poems in memory of
his wife, taking into account the writer's experience in such kind of
works. He also told that before her death Narine asked him to be late...
She meant that she hoped his husband will live longer than she. Avetis
also suggested money for the work. Surely refusing from money, the
young writer agreed to help in creation of the book, he also suggested
