The Times: 'From Berkeley graduate to Armenian freedom fighter is a small step when history is on your side' 'In My Brother's Road, Melkonian's elder sibling charts Monte's bloody passage through this period.' 'reveals the profound shift in radical ideology -- from revolutionary Marxism to nationalism, from the invocation of class struggle to the invocation of history or God. Like post-modernists everywhere, freedom fighters have rediscovered the power of tradition.' 'My Brother's Road is not just the story of a long journey and a short life, it is an attempt to understand what happens when one man decides that terrible actions speak louder than words.' - The Middle East
