Wounds of Armenia (Armenian: Վերք Հայաստանի, romanized: Verk’ Hayastani)[a] is an 1841 historical novel by Khachatur Abovian. Written in the Araratian (Yerevan) dialect,[4]Wounds of Armenia is considered Abovian's chef d'œuvre.[2][5] It is Abovian's debut novel, the first Armenian novel[6][b] and the first modern Eastern Armenian literary work.[8][9] Thanks to Wounds of Armenia, Abovian is acknowledged as the founder of the modern Eastern Armenian language.[2][5]
It was first published in 1858 in Tiflis, which was the cultural center of Russian Armenians before the Russian Civil War,[10] ten years after Abovian's disappearance.[9]
