The Nork publishing house has released the Armenian translation of the “Stone Dreams” novel by Azerbaijani writer Akram Aylisli, News.az reports.

The novel sparked sharp public reaction after it was published in the December edition of the Russian 'Druzhba narodov' magazine.

The writer faced sharp criticism, followed by protest actions outside his house.

Aylisli’s depiction of Armenian massacres in Baku and the negative portrayal of the killings committed by Azeri refugees from Armenia particularly sparked criticism against the author.
