A Champion of Contemporary Armenian Literature

Karen Antashyan is one of Armenia’s most-read contemporary poets. An ardent proponent of the development and dissemination of the Armenian language and contemporary Armenian literature, Antashyan is fighting against the tide of a digital age, when reading is losing ground to new forms of storytelling. For Hidden People, he spoke to Maria Titizian about his love of language, literature and the Granish Literary Club which he helped to establish.
