Nava Semel’s speculative and para-historical novel IsraIsland (2005) imagines Ararat across the centuries as it moves from its founding in 1825 (Part II) up to the fateful month of September 2001 (Parts I and III). We will be posting a few excerpts from the novel soon. Thanks to Nava for her enthusiasm about our parallel project using visual instead of literary media.
