Description: HERE is the story of Aram, whose full name is Aram Garoghlanian, a native American; and it has something of every boy in every American town throughout the land. The opportunities in the American scene for all the spontaneous small-town excitements; the universal gestures of comradeship, the moments of infectious gaiety, the glimpses of unfathomable sorrow; the pith and pulse and warmth of life and the aliveness of it—these are the gifts which Saroyan brings. And he brings too as pleasant a gallery of uncles—the sad uncle, the reckless uncle and the uncle who had to be given advice—as have ever been exposed to view. In this book are all the qualities, hitherto recognized by those who have seen the Saroyan plays, which have endeared them to their cheering audiences; and which earned this author the Pulitzer Prize. "Mr. Saroyan justifies all the promise we predicted for him and shows himself the grown and many-colored artist; the genuine poet in prose, and spokesman for the youth of the world."--CHRISTOPHER MORLEY. This special edition of MY NAME IS ARAM has been made available to the Armed Forces of the United States through an arrangement with the original publisher, Harcourt, Brace and Company, New York. Editions for the Armed Services, Inc., a non-profit organization established by the Council on Books in Wartime. Please visit my store for additional interesting ASE titles.
